Today I'm sharing both my November entries for 'Stuck?! Sketches'. I always have so much fun with Sara's sketches. First up is the 1st November sketch.
Here is my take on it using a photo of my friend's gorgeous little girl again. Unfortunately, I can't take credit for the beautiful photo, as my lovely friend, Kathy, took it and edited it. I have had the papers (Crate Paper 'Emmas's Shoppe') in my stash for a while now, waiting for the right opportunity to use it. I'm so glad I waited, as I think it's just perfect for this pic.
My cluster using a variety of different flowers, mainly from Prima and Kaisercraft.
Another little close up. :) The rhinestone flourish is also from Kaisercraft.
My title is from WOW chipboard. I painted the whole chippie with gesso and then changed 'eyes' to turqoise to match the colour of her eyes. ... and my take on it, using another photo of my mum on her wedding day. The lady with her, is her mother (my grandmother). I've used the Prima 'Rondelle' collection, which I LOVE.
A close up of my cluster. The rhinestone flourish is from Kaisercraft. The vine is from Prima and so are most of the flowers and leaves.
I really love the fabric alpha stickers that Prima has with most of their collections now.
A little cluster in the top corner. :)
That is all for this week I think. I have to start packing soon or I will be up all night. :O
Thank you so much for visiting and for your lovely comments. I really appreciate it.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Until next time.
