Sky Climbers

This past week I was asked to do the sketch at Studio Calico. I was thrilled, especially because the designer of the original LOs, Kelly Noel, is one of my favorites. I decided to do a two-page LO to preserve the white space when I used three 4x4 photos. Here's what I did:


If you look at the right side, that's the sketch. I pulled the left hand elements over more and mimicked the right strips onto the left side to create this LO.

Here's close ups of the two sides:

 

  

And the details:
  

I love clusters of details.
  

I also liked the confetti on the original sketch. I made punches with small  circle punches and cross-stitched a few down. I also added bling. And if you look closely, you can see where I used a Crafter's Workshop chicken wire misting mask.

  

 Here's where I finished up the confetti. I made  it go up, like my boys.

Thanks for looking at my LO! Be sure to go over to Studio Calico and enter the challenge around this sketch!

Wow! Gorgeous. I always struggle with 3 photos - one page or two? Thanks for a stunning example.
