4/20 Mother Earth Challenge - Sketch

Join us all month long in April as we celebrate Mother Earth herself . . .by Reducing, Reusing, and Recycling. . . Reducing is cutting back on the amount of trash we make, reusing is finding a new way to use trash so that we don't have to throw it out, and recycling is using trash to remake new goods that can be sold again.

4/20 Mother Earth Challenge - Sketch

Post by Tracy F »

I have a sketch from Nadine Carlier for you today and along with the sketch I challenge you to find something around the house that you can use to create a background for your layout.
I dipped a nylon bath loofah into some blue paint and squished it around for my background.

Here's the sketch:

GEEZE, Tracy, this sends me back to when I only had a couple stencils and needed to create a background. I used a rolling pin and anything I could temporarily stick on it. What a fun challenge!

I LOVE 💘 your example. The background is awesome and the photos you used are super. I really like the simplicity of your LO and the use of snowflakes to complete the look of your page. Great job!!!

I used a crumpled up grocery store bag, ink and a cloud template for the top. I used an old paint brush for the green at the bottom.
