SCRAP AFRICA #44

I was so excited when I saw Denise's amazing sketch for this new challenge at SCRAP AFRICA, I couldn't wait to use it for some photos I took whilst on our Summer holiday. Here is the wonderful sketch & I'm sure you'd agree that it is quite lovely:



I started with some sea-foam coloured paper from Authentique and added some texture paste with a stencil. The heart is hand-drawn then sprayed and splashed some glimmer mist all over the place. I cut a heart from some fabric and inked, sprayed and distressed it to add more texture to the background.


Behind the photos as well is some paper offcuts in the same sea-foam/pale aqua tones which I also inked. The flowers are Prima and the title is from Words or Whatever. I also used some Kaisercraft rubons on the background and a script stamp. The flair button is from StudioFourteen40.

I really hope that you get a chance to have a go at this sketch challenge. I'd love to see what you can come up with :) TFL xx

    Beautiful Jo. Love the fabric work and the hand drawn heart. The two different versions of the photo look very effective. I'm missing the team, but know that life is about to get crazy again here. Thanks for the inspiration :D
