TGIF!

Woohoo! It's Friday!

Every Friday there is a new sketch posted at My Scraps & More Sketch Blog and I played with it today! I combined the sketch with Let's Get Sketchy's Week 5 challenge to use a favorite sketch from anywhere and use your favorite color combo.

"This morning I'm issuing a challenge that uses color mediums. It can be anything except paint or glitter glue - such as colored pencils, markers, watercolor pencils, gel pens, crayons, chalk.

This is the first time I created a layout without patterned papers! This was so fun, you may be seeing more!

 

Have a great weekend!
