Once Upon A Sketch - September

I had a lot of fun playing with the sketch and theme (lucky) at Once Upon A Sketch this month. Its rare for me to scrap with more than one photo so having a sketch to work with for this layout was fabulous.

Smitten

sketch by Nadia Cannizzo

I rotated the sketch 90 degrees to the left and shifted the positions of my title and journaling but otherwise I think you can see where I worked with the sketch. I loved its simplicity and the freedom it left to create your own background. I wouldn't mind giving it another go though and next time actually leaving a lot of white space. But in the meantime my mind is spilling over with ideas for more layouts so I'd better keep moving!

If you're interested in giving this challenge a go you can find all the details HERE. Don't forget that you only have until the 25th of the month though!!!   :)

PS: Love the super thin flairs? They're from a new product company which was launched last month .. StudioFourteen40. Their designs are fresh and new and their lack of the usual bulk that accompanies most flairs make them perfect for those who want something a little less bulky in their albums and especially for anyone interested in Project Life. Honestly, you really should check them out. Oh and they have new designs being released soon. Me? I can't hardly wait!!!   :)
