Sketches

Get Your Sketch On/ Design Dollies

For this LO I used the sketch from get YOur sketch on and the Design Element from Design Dollies ( I hope no-one minds)

Its called "waiting" and its Nancy in the garden with her umbrella waiting to try and use it!

You can't tell from the picture very well but I cut out the cloud shapes from the card and then backed the holes with the patterned papers. I used a few squares of paper to make a border.
Here is the sketch



Last week at the book and bake sale at school there was face painting. Now the mother that does the face painting is really good but by golly she is slow/ painstaking. Each kid takes a good 10 minutes if not longer- so when Arthur said he wanted his face done and I looked at the queue i thought- he's not going to wait for that long- but he did. I was working on a stall so I gave him the money and wrote his name down at about 2.30. he hung around and waited and waited until 4.00. Such patience from a 6 year old! This LO for Sketchy Thursday shows what he looked like. He had it done on Friday and I couldn't wash it off him until Sunday morning!

  10. These are both fab! Love the cutouts for the clouds and the use of buttons as raindrops - love it!!

    All my kids refuse to have their faces painted (or even temporary tattos,) so love seeing other kids who embrace this. xx
