Scrummy stash cafe sketch challenge

I wanted to have a go at this weeks Scrummy Stash Cafe challenge which is a sketch set by Vanessa.












I decided to do a scrapbook page although I am still a novice scrapper. I used a phot of my youngest daughter when she was about 6 weeks old which I printed out a few months ago with a view to scrapping it but never got round to it - so this sketch was a gift!


































I used papers by Fancy Pants Designs, I hand cut a circle frame and hand stitched it over the photo, I also stuck a die cut crown on Maddie's head, coloured a tag with distress ink and added a rub on and doodled swirls. I stuck buttons across the bottom and added a bloom and doodles swirls top left. I also drew around some of the images on the paper in black ink. I added the name Madeleine with Sue Dreamer alphabet stickers and added glitter glue to accent certain aspects of the layout.
