Borgholm castle

This layout is made for Let´s get sketchy’s week 2 sketch for August. The banner in the sketch made me associating to knight flags (as the photo is taken in an old knight castle). When my creative process was over there were no knight flags on the layout, but the colors that are usually used in knight flags dominates the layout. Here is my interpretation:

 
 
 
On the background I used grey watercolour. I then decorated with red yellow, green and blue acrylic paint. And a lot of stamps.

Here are two close-ups: 

 
Who is peeking out behind the wall? Well, thats my husband, and me and our daughter did not notice until afterwards. :) As I say in the layout - I love them both because they are so silly (among other things).

Thanks for stopping by! Have a nice weekend!

    Ser at du har laget LOen til LGS uke 2 men jeg finner den ikke i side bar på bloggen der. Håper du prøver å legge den til igjen i utfordringen der. Klem x
