I used my sketch to create a layout for this months challenge, inspired by this picture at Artastic:
And my layout:
Click to enlarge
I went with the red theme and the portrait (my daughter). It's not exactly a hat, but it is a head-accessory ~ hopefully that's close enough for the challenge :)
I used: Cosmo Cricket (red) and American Crafts (black & white) papers for the background; Echo Park 'For the Record' paper offcuts and journalling card; Green Tara and Kaisercraft flowers; American Craft foam Thickers; Making Memories alpha stickers; Doodlebug spotty buttons; white Signo gel pen. The little bit of white is the school flyer about the disco ~ I've tucked it in behind the spotted paper.
Well I love Jazzi with the horns and I think it is totally acceptable as a hat Karen, I love how you made the sides and then the subject and embellies in the centre, the title rocks too. Cannot wait to hear your news...the mind boggles. And yes it is a struggle with work and family life and a bit of me time, but I don't know how you do it, any tips let me know. The holidays did go super quick, but I worked and will have holidays up for the next. Look forward to catching up, how cool is the flyer about the disco and the way you used it, I love using tickets and things related to the photo on a page. You have inspired me to scrap now. Melx
