Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop February 2020 - Sketch Challenge!



Welcome to the Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop.....you may be here after checking out Narelle Fasulo's fabulous layout on her blog.  Thanks for visiting me here today!  This month I am taking part in the latest Blog Hop which this month features a sketch challenge.  I have to tell you that I love a good sketch challenge (both for cards and for Scrapbook layouts)!  Its a fabulous starting point... and can really inspire you - especially if you are a little short on direction for a page.  The challenge of course is working out how you will use the sketch, and how you will change it to suit your layout design.  Here is the sketch we had to work with this time:



And here is my layout:



I loved the finished result so much that I used this design in my Scrapbooking class last month!  I used the Golden Honey DSP and matching Honey Bee stamps and dies to create this look.  The honeycomb look in the background is created by using the honeycomb die as a stencil and gently sponging my ink over the top.  I came together quickly and everyone in class loved it too!

Here are a couple of close ups...




The rose bush in the picture is right by our mailbox at our new house. I've always wanted a rose garden.... and now I have these!


Now on to the next blogger in our fabulous blog hop.....the amazing Sara Levin!
