Hi there everyone. It's Marcy here today with your weekly sketch... so, let's get right to it.
I gave this sketch to our newest DT member... the awesome Nicole Harper! And here's how she tackled it, and our featured product, the Sew Fun Banners.
"I cut the inside out of one of the Postcards, and opted to use what was left as a frame instead of a second photo. I added my journaling inside the frame as well as a few other bits. The chipboard numbers were stamped with embossing ink and then I used gold embossing powder on them so that they stood out as a focal point for my title. I also LOVE that you can use the Sew Easy banners as intended or like I did here: a few random pieces by themselves...the 'tree' in the frame and the detail pieces above the photo."
I love the Make it Merry line with charcoal grey cardstock! Sooo pretty. And that messy-stitched tree? I'm definately going to have to do that on a page soon.
I decided to leave the sketch pretty much as is and came up with this layout.
The bubble paper from Midway was perfect for this page about my son enjoying the hot tub. And I couldn't resist throwing that cute rubber duck on the page as well.
Even though the Sew Fun banners are ideal for sewing across as is, I like to space mine out a bit so I sewed mine down after I adhered them to my page.
I hope you enjoy the sketch this week. Be sure to link up your pages in our Flickr gallery so we can see how you interpretted it this week.
Absolutely Kelly Jean! We'd love to see it!
