I simplified it a bit, but the main elements are there. I did like the push to use four photos- I rarely do that!

 

Head on over to the Sketches in Thyme to check out this months’ prize, more info on how to play along and other design team layouts for inspiration!

It’s not often that I go plain and simple, but that’s the way I went with this one.

I love doing Fall pages and those Simple Stories Sweater Weather die cuts and embellishments made it super easy! I didn’t even add any inkiness… what?! I’m pleading temporary insanity. LOL

What I liked about this sketch was the ability to use three pictures! I love one photo layouts, but I really like being able to fit more when I can.

And my take:

I decided to do a fun mixed media background on this one. All the texture and soft colour makes me happy!

Sketches in Thyme – My Heart

It’s the first of the month, meaning a new sketch over at Sketches in Thyme!

My layout is of me and my daughter on Valentine’s Day.

The background was created using modeling paste though a stencil, then sprayed with Color Bloom Spray and water, and random stamping.
