White with one, Feeling Sketchy and the new bird word....

Hi there, so nice of you to come by! I hope you have had a good week, mine has just flown by and I am making a post now while I have a few moments!!

The WHITE WITH ONE AUGUST is to use WHITE PASTELS AND MASKING.. what a great combination!

My layout..
and a bit closer.. my pastels are so soft..
The papers I have used are mixed kaiser papers..

The sketch for FEELING SKETCHY #67 was a lovely one again and I pretty much stuck to the sketch.. there was an option to use flowers... (did someone say flowers!!hehe!!)
 

I have used some sweet little roses on the lace..

And although the official word has not gone up on the blog I am sure it will be ok to let you know the new word for BIRD IS THE WORD .. and the word is  EXPLORE/TRAVEL.. There are so many ways you can use this word... and the DT have created some wonderful takes for this word too.. They should be up on the blog sunday or monday aussie time.. there has just been a bit of a hold up...
My layout is using a photo of my DD when she was staying in the UK for 6 months. One of the many places she visited was the Memorial for Princess Diana.. So I used this photo for my layout..

and this is the optional sketch you can use.. I used the sketch and rotated it once clockwise..

Memories.

I will let you know when the post has gone live on the Bird Blog, but in the meantime you know the next word!!

Thanks for your visit and I hope you have a wonderful day.. and your comments are always appreciated too!
