The Paper Bakery just started doing sketch challenges on their blog, so I decided to play along with their very first one! The sketch was so fun to play with for sure! I decided to scrap these pictures of my oldest and her eating her first ice cream cone. We were on a missions trip, helping with a VBS on the Navajo Nation. The place we went to dinner had free ice cream cones for the kids, and so didn't miss out (even though she was just over 1.5 yo). Instead of getting her hands dirty, she put the cone on the table and ate it that way. I am going to add journalling to the bottom right. But because it will contain names and personal details, I left it off for now.
I used MLS Green for this layout. I love the cute patterns, and the wood grain browns worked well with the burnt orange shirt I thought. The brads are Doodle Bug, and the washi is a mx of MME and Downtown Tape. The large alphas are AC Thickers, and the tiny ones are MLS. I added some blue and pink thread to the wood grain strip to add the final bit of layer (and go to with the Scrap Your Story Challenge).
And here is the amazing sketch it is based off of:
This is the sweetest ever!! Love the papers you chose with the adorable photos!
ReplyDeleteThat's hilarious! I have one who hates getting his hands messy too, to teach him that trick or not?! Love that sketch - might have to play along myself. And I'm soooo lifting the multiple colored threads when hand stitching. Why have I never thought of that? My friend, you are awesome, and thanks for joining us this week at SYS.
