Good morning. This may be one of my favorite layouts. Maybe it was the overall simplicity, or maybe because it is such a special set of pictures for me. This is my layout for the 28th Sassy Lil’ Sketches team. After choosing my photos, I decided to print my photos in black & white for this layout. After choosing my papers, I decided to edit the photos again and give them a blue filter. I LOVE the effect this gave.
This was the sketch I had to start with.
My journaling reads, “As youngsters, they may seem like arch enemies at times, but as they grow older the ties that bind them become as strong as the love between them.” This was just a random quote I found online that really worked for the four of us. I layered a journaling die cut on a separate die cut with pop dots. I also outlined the back die cut with Stickles.
This shows some of the dimension a little better. Love that Bo Bunny trim.
I wish I had pictures of the four of us together as kids. For now, I’ll just have to hope we can get together more often for pictures with the four of us as we continue to get older from here.
Papers used on this layout is from the On Holiday collection by The Girls Paperie. Large flower is layered Prima flowers. Buttons are PaperTrey Ink. Chipboard Alpha by Pink Paislee. Die cuts are by Crate Paper and rub-on is Kaisercraft.
Don’t forget to play along with one or more of the sketches this month for a chance to win some fabulous prizes from Expressions Vinyl and Lauretta’s Digital Stamps. You can see the other February Sketches and link up with us at Sassy Lil’ Sketches. Can’t wait to see what you do with this sketch.
