Kriewel Revue 2013

Update .. this layout won Top3 pick

Let's Scrap Sketches challenge 10-15-15 is to use this sketch...

Thank you Michelle van Wyk for this gorgeous sketch. I adjusted it slightly to fit the photo shapes and sizes I already had of my grandkids' school revue. I love the bright colours that were used to design their costumes, and have incorporated these into the layout viz. pink, blue, and silver. I used a holographic silver paper, hence the rainbow of colours seen in the photograph. In real life my eye only picks up the silver.

If you look carefully at their costumes and makeup, you will see "hearts" sewn onto the costumes, and "swirls" painted on their faces, and I tried to capture that with some of the embellishments. The pink ribbon is meant to pick up the pink frills on the girls' costume. LOTS and LOTS of BLING on my layout!

Kriewel Revue 2012

UPDATE: My layout was chosen as Top 3 Pick at Let's Scrap for this challenge!

Let's Scrap Sketches challenge 6-1-15 is to use this sketch...

Thank you Michelle van Wyk for this fabulous sketch! It fits in perfectly for the layout I have been wanting to do of the 2012 concert photos of my grandchildren's school. Their school won 1st place in the 2012 inter-school competition, so the school arranged for professional photos to be taken of the individual children participating. Their costumes were absolutely fabulous.

I switched the 3 photo placings on the right-hand side page to some decorative swirls instead, and in place of the large stars as embellishments, I added swirls to match the make-up swirls on the kids' faces. And of course LOTS and LOTS of BLING on my layout! The grey swirls were cut out of grey-glitter cardstick, and the string is actually a string of very shiny sequins. Such a pity that the photographs do not do justice to the real-deal.
