My favorite view

Happy Monday everyone! It's time for a new sketch and DT reveal at Let's Get Sketchy. So today I have my inspiration page to share with you.
I love this photo I took of Makara up on the Foothills Pkwy. right down the road from our house. All the paper I used for this page are from the "Harvest" collection by We R Memory Keepers. For the circular elements from the sketch I used a couple different postage stamps and black ColorBox ink on the background. The flowers are from Petaloo, Prima, and a few from my stash.  I collected some cute little acorns from my yard and decided to throw some into my clusters. The tiny rhinestones are from Recollections in topaz. The lace and ribbon are both from my stash. The forget me not die cuts I made using a Memory Box die, adding the tiny rhinestones to the flower centers to dress them up a bit.
And here's the beautiful sketch designed by Jenessa Franco.
Now it's your turn, and I can't wait to see your creations! Thanks for stopping in!

Happy Holidays

Good morning! It's time for our first official sketch challenge at Stick It Down. It's the first Tuesday of the month so we have a fun, versatile single page sketch to get your creative mojo going. This is my inspiration page based off the sketch.
I used Pink Paislee papers, stenciling the background with Snow Tex, and then inking the edges. The doilies were sprayed with Heidi Swapp color shine in Tinsel and Tattered Angels' Mel's Diner. The silver washi tape is from Recollections. And the stickers are Soft Spoken. 
And here's the sketch, which I mirrored for my page.
Now it's your turn! I'd love to see your take on the sketch. You have until Jan. 13th to link up your project here. Thanks so much for stopping by. I truly appreciate it.
