Once upon a Sketch:
There was a challenge over at Show Us Your Stuff to create your own book paper blooms..I watched the video and then had a go. I changed the style up a little bit. Not quite so fluffy I think? I also made some smaller ones. And I used dress pattern papers. I bought a whole heap of them at a local op shop and have been punching and cutting from them for months! 50 cents well spent! I haven't actually done a layout for Show Us Your Stuff yet - but I will - I have more flowers left over!
It also based on this sketch:
I flipped it and then turned it 90 degrees. I replaced the fence with bunting. You know it actually looks nothing like the sketch anymore - and considering how spatially incompetent I am - I probably stuffed it! I promise I kept glancing back at the sketch - ALL the time!
A photo of me and my beautiful twin girls...On their birthday last year..Oh how I love them..
Night all xx

ReplyDeleteYeah! I looked at that tut too & was really impressed AND have a pile of patterns which I thought would work well...as you've shown me they do...just gotta find the time. No kids at home...can't blame that....just getting up too late & spending waaaay too much time on THIS thing:):):) Still, great to see your GREAT takes on the challenges:):):):)
