Maria was kind enough to make an awesome sketch for us to use. It includes two 12 x 12 sketches that could be used separately or together for a double page spread.
I chose to use the single layout on the right for my page.
This sketch was the perfect one to use for these recent pictures I got of my son. His name is Ricky and he has a very original pattern of freckles on his face. If you were to connect the freckles on the left side of his face (the right side in the photo) you would be able to form a half smile!
To create the title for this page I used Alphabetically Adorable by {ippity}.
The smile was created by hand!
Can you see Ricky's freckles in this shot? I repeated the theme of dots on the layout by stamping circles using the dotted background stamp from the {ippity} Love in Return set. I also added buttons and clusters of buttons to continue the "dot" theme. I also added a border on top of the center strip using the same dotted stamp!
The original stamp comes from the Love in Return set also!
The journaling reads...
"Look closely at Ricky's face and notice the row of freckles that if you
connect like a dot-to-dot it would form half a smile. He's Unique!
The sketch was great to play with (thanks Maria!) and we sure hope you will give it a try too!!
