As today it's the 15th again we have a new sketch challenge over at Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge!! and how I LOVE sketch challenges! I've noticed that I have a tendency to stick to one "safe" design if I don't (have to) use a sketch. Although, if I do have a sketch then it's hard to see I've used it at all!
Here's the layout I made. Manon, Mats, Julia and I had been to the library (yes, again ... we spend a lot of time there, LOL) and were cycling home when we met my dh who snapped a photo of us.
and a close-up:
I've used the January kit from Scraptastic Club called "Days of our Lives" filled with lots of Fancy Pants (The Good Life collection) which I so love! Isn't this paper just perfect for this photo?
And this is the February sketch from AFSC I've used:
I love the simplicity of this sketch! If you like it too, why not join us for a change at Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge and who knows, maybe you're the winner of the monthly prize or maybe you'll be our next guest designer! Have a look at the blog for more inspiration from the other designers!
By the way, today is the very last day you can leave a comment with this (click for link) blogpost for a chance to win an Imaginisce I-Rock tool from me!!
That's it for today! Thanks for stopping by and hope you have a wonderful weekend!
Hugs,
Weer een prachtige layout. Leuke sketch! Een ritje naar de biep is altijd goed, wat zouden we doen zonder boeken ;-) hugs, Mieke
ReplyDeleteIk vind het een erg mooie uitweking van de schets en zo'n onverwachte foto is altijd erg leuk!! fijn weekend
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful and refreshing page, Monique. I love the banners and layering behind the photo. Well done! :)
ReplyDeleteWat leuk, zo'n spontaan plaatje! Het is een hele gave lay-out. Ik vind vooral de 3D banner erg leuk.
ReplyDeleteGood for you! (& your husband for getting the picture). Great family experience.
ReplyDeleteOnwijs gaaf, Monique! Zo leuk zoals je foto verwerkt hebt, de vlaggenlijn enz.
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting my blog and leaving ♥. Your layout is gorgeous Monique. Your button border inspired me today.
ReplyDeleteWow!! Love this LO..x
ReplyDeleteLove the matting of your photos - it adds so much color to the layout - and the way you pimped up the banner with buttons. Fabolous layout!
ReplyDeleteI love the way you used this bicycle paper. I have that paper too and wasn't sure how to use it. LOVE your idea. Beautiful!
