This is the start of an inspiration patch, where I hope that fellow scrappers and creators will come and find some inspiration, or even leave some inspiration for me.

At a Stretch - Scrap Friends July Sketch Challenge

Hello Everyone

I have a page to share with you for the Scrap Friends July sketch challenge.


I really loved this sketch and so wanted to keep my page quite close to this design.

So here is my page.


I took these photo's of this ellie at the zoo last week, when we took the kids on an outing. He was really so close to us, we could almost touch him.

Here is a close-up of my journalling.


I used Fancy Pants Swagger Collection as these papers were the great earthy colours that I was looking for.


The alpha stickers are Beary Patch, the arrow chipboards are Wilpro, the brackets are Celebr8, and the washi tape 7 Gypsies.

Thanks for stopping by!
I really appreciate your visits.
Have a super evening!
Denise x
