together

 

 

I made a colorful page based on the awesome sketch of Stuck?! Sketches. Here is the sketch!

 



 

This is a picture when my daughter's best friend came to our house for a sleepover. They were so excited, in their pajamas, chuckling and whispering until late at night...My daughter's the only child, and so am I, and I know how it feels to have a friend staying over night and sleeping next to you. So fun !! Anyways, I had to hush them several times, til they finally fell asleep. The next day, they were up so early though, already full of energy, ready to play:) I wanted to make a fun and colorful, bright and exciting layout.

I rotated the sketch, and used several colors for the background. I spread some gesso and scribbled a bit with watercolor pencils, and dabbed some water to shade off the outline. I layered chipboards frames and diecuts, scraps of paper and added more dimension by popping them up. The title and stars were thin wood with light color, so I put some gesso and colored it with brown red ink to make it match. Here are some close ups:

I had so much fun making this layout!
The challenge is open until September 29th.
Grab your picture and papers and begin scrappin' !!

Thank you for visiting:)
