Once Upon A Sketch

It's been a while since I participated in a sketch challenge just for fun, but this week I had some free time on my hands and felt like doing a challenge. So I browsed the challenge sites and found this fun challenge at "Once Upon A Sketch". 


"We would like you to create a layout based on this quote. You can interpret it ANY way you like. There is no wrong or right way to interpret this quote but your layout must incorporate something from this quote AND the sketch below. Please make sure that we see some sort of journalling on your layouts and please tell us where your journalling is . Hidden journalling is perfectly fine."


And here's what I made, finally digging into my Webster's Pages stash!




The photo is of my mother together with her parents (my grandparents) and her brother. This must have been  around 1950. 

The journaling is handwritten on the tag which I then hid behind the photos. From the quote I focused on the word "camera" and added two wooden cameras from Studio Calico, the title of the page is "Click" (see photo frame on the left) and the subtitle is "strike a pose". 

Supplies: Trendsetter from Webster's Pages and a few other embellishments. 

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Hugs,
Monique
