This lovely couple are my parents!! And I chose this wonderful picture to create a LO for Once Upon a... Sketch - the added criteria is to use song lyrics as your journalling - that was the hard part for me. But I asked my mum about her favourite artists and she said angus & julia stone - so I've printed out some journalling from the song big jet plane (which I love too).
This LO came together so nicely - I've used some beautiful papers by Bo Bunny - I don't usually use pattern papers in the background, but these really suited the b&w photo!
Here are some close-up's:
... some chipboard by Dusty Attic, trinkets from Bo Bunny, crochet doily, hand-made paper flower and curled raffia...
... some of the printed journalling and chipboard letters by Bo Bunny!
And here is the sketch:
I'll have quite a few LO's to share over this next week (if time allows) Over the past weekend I attended the Handmade by Suzanne Scrap Retreat and managed to create quite a few LO's!! Had a great weekend at a lovely location with lots of lovely ladies!!
