Love is a 4 legged word - Page Drafts Love is Everywhere challenge and 123 Challenge February

Hello there, so very nice of you to come by.. I hope your day is going well..

A few weeks ago Emma over at PAGE DRAFTS released some gorgeous sketches as well as a fabulous challenge to go with it..  I was lucky to do a sketch for the release and when I read the guest designers could also join in with the challenge by creating another layout, I thought I would create another layout using a different sketch..

The sketch I used was this one..
and the photos I used for my layout are ones I love as they are so natural and you can see the love and bond that existed between my daughter and the horse we had here.. Her hand is gently touching his chin as he brings his head up to give her a kiss....  the title of my layout is.

Love is a 4 legged word..

(a couple of close ups..)




 And apologies for the lateness of this challenge going up but the February challenge for 123 CHALLENGE BLOG has just gone up and it will run until 22nd March so you still get a full month to do it.. and it is to use

 

( color - purple, word - spirit and technique is texture paste or anything that adds texture to your layout)

 and my layout..




This month not only is shorter but the days even feel shorter!! I know how busy I feel so I do appreciate you taking a moment to come by.. and always thankful for any comments too..

  21. Stunning layouts! Just LOVE what you have done with Em's sketch. The colours are perfect for the current colour challenge over at ScrapFriends - there is still time to enter - it ends March 14 - would love to see it added.:-) Your second layout is so calming. Lovely composition and mix of textures on the background.
