This month’s sketch challenge over at Scrapbook Supplies Online features this fun sketch to get your creative juices flowing:
April Layout Challenge for Scrapbook Supplies Online |
I originally planned on this being a monochromatic green layout, but yellow always seems to find its way onto my layouts these days. The layout was inspired by Sandra Boynton’s book, Snuggle Puppy, the lyrics of which I could not get out of my head as I snapped these Instax photos of my snoozing fur-babies. I put a revised version of the lyrics on the journalling card (changing puppy to kitties, of course!).
That gorgeous feline shape was cut with my amazing Cameo (is it wrong to love a machine THIS MUCH???). I knotted the twine every here and there for interest before attaching it in a crossed-over/spread out pattern (is there are word for that… maybe “splayed”??) that I thought mirrored the white designs in the background paper. Those grey letters are Basic Grey mini monogram letters, I believe exclusive to the kit, and although they are not texturised, they had such a look of wool/felt, I could’t resist using them for the snuggle part of the title.
There was also some stamping, outlining, regretted sewing, and inking of velum involved, as seen in the process vid. If you have any questions about supplies, feel free to message me.
