I just realized I forgot to
show you this layout that I made for Scrap The Girls for March. It is a sketch
challenge this month and the sketch is quite far from what I usually create. So
it was a challenge. But I love challenges and I really love the result.
Maybe it is hard to see,
but I followed the sketch quite closely. I placed both the title and the
flowers in the right place. It is just that my flowers are on patterned papers
and on stamps.
The text on the layout
says: “If you love my smile I will sleep with it". That’s
what our daughter said one night when she was going to bed. I reached for the
camera to be able to save the memory.
Here are two close-ups:

Take care!
March challenge at ARTastic
is to get inspired by a painting by Barbara Hanrahan. The criteria is to
use a quote or a saying on your page. I chose a quote by Albert Einstein saying
“Play is the highest form of research”. I thought it was perfect with this
photo of DD and her friend with mud all over them. I guess they have done some research... ;-)
I used some grey watercolour
on the background and splashed on acrylic paint in different colours to enhance
the mud-theme. It’s been a while since I used that technique and it was SO fun! I also added some acrylic paint in neon yellow to match one of the reflective vests on the photo. Here are two close-ups showing the techniques:
I hope you feel inspired
and decides to play along! You’ll find the rest of the DT’s awesome inspiration
here.
Thanks for stopping by!
Have a nice day!
