Always Fab!!

I've been itching to do another layout!!! So, I went looking for inspiration.....I had seen a sketch at Creative Imaginations....so I headed back there again! It is the August Sketch....I know....a bit late but this sketch is timeless and I have just gotten around to it!!

I pulled out my "BELOVED" collection by IOD/Creative Imaginations. Don't you just love this paper!! I SURE DO!!

Of course, I had to add my twist to it....that's the beauty of sketches....a great place to get the creative juices going and to spur your imagination. Instead of the paint splots....I used flowers and paper twirls. I adhered the strips to the page by sewing them down. I just love using textiles so I pulled out a doilie I had kicking around and used it.

PS....did you notice I didn't use any DISTRESS INK??? Now, that's a TWIST!!

The photos are self portraits of my lovely daughter Melysa. The journaling reads..."You are...loving, kind, conscientious & thoughtful. You make me proud to be your mom!" (and she does!!!)
