A scrappy LO of my twin boys doing what they love best: Fishing!! They could sit out there all day.
This LO uses the March Sketch from Handmade By Suzanne - sketch created by the talented Michelle Fowler - I had a fun time with this one and really enjoyed the different layers. My background is some gesso and glimmer-mist.
Here's some close-up's:
I made the fish using a stencil from the kids craft box - traced onto pattern paper by Cosmo Cricket - Salt Air. I've sponged the edges and added a button!
I've also added in some clouds and birdie pin from the Chip-Chop Shop!
A little tag with a spotty button from Lil Red Rocket. The 'Summer Favourites' tag is from October Afternoon.
... and some American Craft black letters - can't seem to do a LO without them.
Here's the sketch if you would like to join in! Thanks for a fabulous sketch Michelle!!
On a side note: my sketch challenge for Creative bits has now closed - we only got a few entries in but a big thanks for those that did play along.
I've drawn a random winner and it's SUE from Broomehill who sent her entry in by email - thanks Sue - please give me a quick email and I'll arrange your goodies.
