JAI 86 - Sketch Challenge

Well I have been a poor blogger of late but I have been busy in other parts of my life and also trying to complete the 60 wedding invitations that I need to make for my son's wedding in January next year. Making the same thing 60 times over is quite monotonous even if you love the purpose for which you are making the project. Therefore, I have to do it in stages and short stints otherwise I lose my concentration. Can you imagine clear embossing 180 flourishes at one time? I couldn't do it, took me 3 sessions to complete!

Anyway, this post is about the latest challenge at Just Add Ink which is a sketch challenge. I decided to move away from my usual card project and create a scrapbook layout for this week's challenge. I even dug deep and brought out some old photos of my 18th birthday celebrations to put on the page. Not sure what I think of my fashion sense back then or the fact that I have indicated my age here by doing this layout!

Here is the sketch...

Here is my layout using a 12x12 sheet from the new Timeless Portrait DSP...

As you can see I flipped the sketch and used it as my inspiration to create a timeless layout. Hop on over to the Just Add Ink blog and see what other projects the Design Team have made using the sketch as their inspiration. Then join in the fun and upload your project based on the given sketch.

Thanks for stopping by and I will see if I can get another post in before the next JAI challenge, not holding my breath though!
