I've been taking a little holiday from sketches and thought I'd let you know that I'll be back into them in Feb.
In the meantime thought I'd share a LO I did for Maursie in Australia. She bid on an auction via the Fiskars blog to win a LO made by me for her, with her own photos.
This is what I created:
Materials List:
Fiskars Heidi Grace papers - Sunrise Smoothie range
Fiskars Punch - Threading water
Other: Prima Crystals, buttons, beads, ink, Basic Grey metal frame
I deliberately left it quite simple so the photos stood out. There were a lot of them, so it seemed to suit a double LO even though I'm a little scared of them now. LOL! Actually they are fine. I just don't seem to do them anymore. It was a nice change!
I've also left room for some journaling on the left hand side for Maursie to tell her sons story.
Changing the subject, if you're after a good story that is easy to read check out "The Wild Colonial Girl" by Ann Clancy. My Mum gave it to me for Xmas and I read it over the last couple of days. It was about Australia when it was getting settled, the gold rush etc. Was a good easy read.
And thanks to my sis Vonny for having my kids yesterday and last night. I really appreciated it and wanted to say "You Rock!".
Have a good Sat.
Gorgeous ... looks sensational with the yellow and wow on the buttons.
Your Ozzie scrapper is going to love it!
