I hope your weekend has begun well. I've been busy making a layout for the September sketch challenge for The Dusty Attic. Here's the sketch. It's another beauty!
And here's my layout:
I love the circular element in the sketch. I created mine with gesso and stitching. I went crazy with stamping, in both black and white ink.
All the chipboard pieces have been spray-painted white. I find this much quicker than hand-painting them all with a brush.
The background paper is the only paper on this page. All the other elements are created with stamping, stitching, painting, thickers and, of course, lots of lovely chippies!
Dusty Attic chipboard used:
Chevron Panel Large
Page Pebbles #1
Trellis Small
Pointer Tags
Him & Her Border
Seagulls
I hope you can join in the sketch challenge this month.
Happy scrappin'!
Heather
