My last layout that will get completed in Feb from this kit was inspired by the sketch challenge for March over at the sketch blog for Scrapbook365. I really liked this sketch.
The koala in the picture is not really noticeable even in real life so I used an arrow that was sitting on my desk and added it pointing straight at him! This sketch came together quickly and easily and was a great way to use up journalling blocks that I wouldn't end up using because they had vintage pictures on them.
I love the way the background card turned out. I sprayed a plain aqua Bazzill with Mr Huey Heirloom Blue and Calico Shine. It has lots of sparkle in real life and the splatters make it feel more rustic. Normally I spray my backgrounds in a big box, but I couldn't find it and so I took the layout outside to spray on the grass (in the front yard even - the neighbours must have thought I was loony!). And I learnt something important ... do not stand downwind on a windy day when spraying, unless you want speckled legs!
I will continue to use up this kit throughout March so that I can finish the photos from this trip. With limited scrapping time my kit will be a two-monther LOL

I love that sketch too! I will have to check it out! What a great way to use up those journal blocks. You did a wonderful job with this sketch. I love all those layers!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty page from a great sketch!
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful page - everything sits together so nicely on that gorgeous shade you have chosen for the background
ReplyDeleteLOOOOVE that sketch!!! You've done a super job with it. Still loving that camera paper!
ReplyDeleteLove your color choises! Great layout!
ReplyDeleteYou've started with a great sketch to make a great page! Love how your background turned out (think some misting might be what the page on my desk right now needs!)
ReplyDeleteOh this page is super attractive - good use of the arrow and the camera that looks like you cut it out from the patterned paper (or a sticker, perhaps?). You've really blended all the elements here together so well. Nice!
ReplyDeleteSmashing page - love the camera paper. I like that sketch too and have just about finished my version of it,
