Our Beautiful January Sketch
Three members of our Design Team and our Guest Designer have created a layout using this sketch and the January Kit, "Fights of Fancy":
"Love" by Keren Tamir
I used the January sketch as inspiration for this layout. There were 2
different pinkish tones in this Kit. The one I used in this layout is
more of a peachy color. I made a layout about my husband and I using
lots of peach colored embellishments. I love the cherub at the top
holding the heart. Its so precious.
"Beautiful Family" by Beverly Sams
The young couple here is the one from my layout “Dream” a few years
later with their young boys. I thought the blues of their clothing were
perfect matches for the papers and flowers in C’est Magnifique’s January
kit. I first sprayed some turquoise Tattered Angels glimmer mist and
immediately applied texture paste with a palette knife over a Martha
Stewart stencil so that the paste would absorb some of the color. I then
brushed white paint onto the raised areas of the paste after it dried.
"Spring Was Calling" by Gerry van Gent
Gerry is our January Guest Designer and she rotated the sketch to create this beautiful layout!
"Smiling Faces" by Brit Sviggum
I used this picture on last year`s Christmas card. I took a whole series
of pictures, and I like them so much that I still keep making pages
with them .
