Let's Get Sketchy with Sketches4All Winter Wonderland Challenge!!!

Hello everyone and HAPPY FRIDAY!!!! A little late I know... But I hope you enjoy your weekend all the same :-)

"Merry and Bright" with Pink Paislee "Noel" Paper Pad
Today I'm sharing with you a layout I recently created for the Let's Get Sketchy January Week 1 Sketch.  I am also combing this with the Sketches4All Winter Wonderland challenge where Anything goes so long as it meets the theme criteria and the following photo for inspiration:

Here's a look at the fabulous sketch by Brenshevia:


And here is my "Winter Wonderland" Layout:


I absolutely LOVE this sketch and the Pink Paislee "Noel" paper pad together!!!  It was actually a pretty simple page, only dressing it with a few embellishments and putting my punches to work! This is a photo of me and my husband on Christmas Day last year :-)
I started by outlining most of the papers and photo with a Silver Sharpie marker, then used a shimmery silver background paper to add the silver from the inspiration photo.  
I used a craft knife and a ruler to make the large "chevrons", outlining them also to make them stand out.  I finished it with chipboard by Studio Calico and Blue Fern studios, inking and embossing on the larger pieces.
Here are a couple of close-ups:



Well gang...  Thanks soooo much for stopping in and have a LUCKY day :-)
