Santa time of year

I hope you have all been good this year! Santa will drop by and leave some magic for us all.

The latest sketch is up at Lets Get Sketchy.
This is the second last sketch of the year so if you aren't busy christmas shopping or wrapping presents, come and join in with us this week.

Here is my take

I have done some masking on the right side, sprayed ink over the dried paste and added some paint splatters. Then l just layered some card embellishments under my photos.

 

Here is the sketch to follow - l flipped it for my layout

 

Wishing all my fellow scrapbookers a fantastic christmas and may 2014 bring joy to you all!

This Week

Over at Lets Get Sketchy this week's sketch is super cool!
Here is my take using a mixture of papers and elements from various designers.

I have layered up strips of PP, distressed some edges and used 2 border punches. I popped up some stickers and the layout came together quite quickly.
Pop on over to LGS and join in with us this week.
(Sorry about the bad photography, the colour is not quite right)

Ooops l forgot to post this!!

Hi everyone, for those of you who don't know l recently bought a bar/restaurant in Brisbane. Now after 5 very long and tiring weeks, l have carried out renovations while trading and had a relaunch party last Thursday. It was a great success and l hope l will now have time to get some scrapping done.

Today l am up on the Lets Get Sketchy site with their current weekly sketch

You can tell summer is quickly approaching as the days are getting longer and the sun comes up earlier.

October has almost gone

It won't be long until we are madly shopping for Christmas. That's a scary thought! l'm not sure l am over last year yet. All the shops have decorations up already!
Anyway Lets Get Sketchy has another new sketch up this week. I've used some older photos again and I'm loving those cute little pigtails on my daughter.

Here is what l did

I have inked over a mask to create the masses of dots. The red and black dots are liquid pearls.

I found some old photos of my daughter which went well some papers and embellishments from Simple Stories.

Here are some close ups of the circles l added to the background paper. I used my water colour pencils and some liquid pearls.

I have also used a mask with pink ink running under my photos.
