The Good Life!

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,

  8. Love 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!
