I found this wonderful sketch over at My Creative Scrapbook and used it for my open challenge at Sketches in Thyme. We have an open sketch challenge until the end of the month. Just post any sketch and your take on it.
I made this page for my friend and the birth of their first child. I love the layered look it has, with the soft baby pastels. I used puffy paint to make the swirls in the bottom right, and then some fun paper buttons around the page. I distressed all the edges to soften the look of the page.
