Once Upon a Sketch - 01 Feb Challenge

Hi Everyone

Today I want to share with you my layout for the Once Upon a Sketch challenge. The criteria was as follows:

February 1st Challenge

Journalling Criteria/theme: LOVE

 and the sketch was this.

I actually have 2 loves in my life and that is my husband and my son. So I did a layout called - My Boys  - and is about these precious loves of my life.

The picture was taken at Umdloti Beach and so I wanted to definitely bring in a sea side theme to my layout.

It came together so nicely and here is my creation below.

Here is a close-up of the natural embelishments.

This is where I tell you that every single shell and piece of wood has been collected over the last 40 years by me and my family and this layout just seemed perfect to use them on. I love the natural feel that it gives the page.

Materials used:

Heidi Swapp - Sky School stripe paper

Dazzles Spray Ink

Basic Grey Chipboard stickers

Fancy Pants lettering

Scrapbook King rub on

Corrogated cardboard (whitewashed and browned)

Doodle Bug Design Swirl Stickers

Natural Twine

Thank you for stopping by today..

I hope you had an awesome Monday..

Take Care
