Smile - Sketches In Thyme Guest Maven | The Flamingo Chronicals: Smile

Howdy fellow bloggers - are you ready for the weekend?

I sure am! I have a list a mile long of things to do.

This month I am so lucky to be participating as a Guest Maven at

Sketches In Thyme and this is the first sketch I was given

a little more linear than I normally than I normally pick, but I really thought

it looked fun! Here is my take on it,,

A big yahoo for me - I used papers that I got in a class kit over 2 years ago! I never finished the class project because it never really appealed to me, but I loved the papers! The blue polka dot is from Lush, and everything else is from Graphic 45. The kraft doily, lace, and chipboard title are Maya Road, the rub-on is Creative Imaginations, Flowers are Prima, bling is Recollections.

I colored my title with Oche Gelatos® and outlined it with my Stampers Big Brush Pen #274.

The journal spot is from a book of them I bought - I can't for the life of me remember

who makes them! The ribbon is from Maya Road.

I hope you hop on over to Sketches In Thyme and join in the fun.

I am linking up at the following challenges:

Divas By Design - Anything Goes

4 Crafty Chicks - Ribbons and Bows

Have a great weekend!

You know, I used to be all like "everything on here is mine and you can't copy it!!" Now I realize how childish that sounds. I did not invent anything that you are seeing on this blog. Everything I do, everything I create, was inspired by something I saw, something I did, or something someone else did. Please, look around, I hope you like what you see. If you see something you love, I hope you recreate it for your pages/scrapbook/home. If you feel like giving a link back to here, great! If not, that is all good too. It is art after all, and art is meant to be shared, not hoarded away! I hope my art inspires you, as so many other peoples art has inspired me.
May the Flamingo's be with you.
Anita

What a great layout. I just love that cool photo with the sunglasses. The stitching is great and I also love the inking.
