Some sketch layouts

This layout is based on Sketch #209 at Sketches in Thyme:



* The July moodboard challenge at Scrapbook Boutique inspired my title choice, and use of sequins as a nod to the bokeh images.
* The July challenge at Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge inspired me to feature butterflies on the layout.

Materials

My Mind's Eye Collectable - Remarkable - Day - Dates patterned paper
Metal filigree butterfly
Kaisercolour Spearmint acrylic paint

This layout for my October 2015 album is based on the July sketch at My Creative Sketches:



The Candy Land challenge at Lasting Memories inspired my colour choice - lots of brights, especially green.  (Although I must admit, I've never seen or played the Candy Land game.)
