... my second post in as many days!
I forgot to say a huge Congratulations to Liz, Lynne and Beverley in my last post. They are the winners of the Stars in Their Eyes competition that finished recently over at Scrappin' Patch. I think the winners were definitely well deserved, and I am especially happy that my good friend, Liz, came first - she is awesome!! Congrats, Liz!
The Sketchbook Retreat is in only a couple of weeks; Liz, Kim (my friend), Amanda (Liz's friend) and I are all going together. So excited; can't wait!! Just not sure I am going to have anything organised to do...
Oh, I had to post a sketch challenge over at Scrappin' Patch; I have only ever done one layout from a sketch, and I have never made a challenge before, so my first attempt is at left.
Ok, now you have to forgive my awful drawing, but I couldn't figure out how to make a computer sketch on either PSE or Sketchblog - is that what's it's called? Or is it Scrapblog... anyway, so I had to quickly do a sketch and scan it. You can see why I never became an artist, lol.

And at left is my take on the sketch. Not sure I like this page very much; it is very simple and linear compared to what I have been doing lately, but the photos and paper were quite busy and just needed some simplicity, I think. And it was pretty quick to do, which was a bonus. I love my little hand-stitched felt clouds!So, if you wanna play along with me, visit the Scrappin' Patch forum here for more details. Would love to see your version of it...
Ok, that'll do for today; need to go make an Easter layout, and sort out a couple of techniques, so that should keep me busy for a while. Oh, and expecting a HUGE parcel from Scrappin' Patch early next week, including my next DT kit, so can't wait to get that and have a play. Have a great weekend!

That is such a cute layout!! Love the sketch too, I actually prefer the "real" hand-drawn ones as they look more arty! So there ya go!
(I draw mine by hand and take photos of them ... super technical, ROFL)
Your on a roll Tracy lol! I think it's a lovely layout. Also, thanks for your kind words over our loss of Milo. Looking forward to catching up in a couple of weeks at the retreat.
Hi Tracy
You know I love this layout and sketch, and I see everyone else LOVES the sketch too so here's me saying I TOLD YOU SO!!!
Gonna try and get some time to do the challenge - and whatever it is you've told me to do on your 19 March blog... just remember though, some of us work :) xx
