Thumbs Up (dude). Citrus Twist Sunday sketch!

Happy Sunday!  It's Sunday Sketch time over at Citrus Twist Kits and I'm sharing a layout I made using the sketch and February's main kit.

To play along with our sketch challenge, upload your layouts to the gallery by Feb. 15th to get your name in a drawing to win a $5 gift certificate to the Citrus Twist Kits store. When uploading to the gallery you can name it as you would normally but please include "Sketch 02/09" so we know which drawing to put your name into.

Here is the sketch:  



First I laid out the October Afternoon frame chippies (which were perfect to highlight a few shots of my daughter giving her famous "thumbs up" sign).  The one on the bottom left was the tealish colored frame, which I painted using some navy acrylic paint.  Then I marked a grid around the frames, added a doodled border with my Sharpie, colored in with some red, green, and yellow markers. (The "gold" star and the numbers are from my stash.)


Then I added some fussy cut conversation bubbles, and outlined and colored them as well (popping some up and leaving some flush with the paper).




Then I worked in some of the wooden bits from the kit, and the denim fabric as well.  Added my title (Thickers from a prior month's kit), a few splashes of navy Heidi Swapp Color Shine from my kit, and my journaling.  Voila! Layout complete.  I literally used every bit of February's main kit on my projects this month - all which are completely different from the others.  LOVED this kit!

Citrus Twist Kits Guest Designer for February!

Hope you are all enjoying the Citrus Twist Kit blog hop!  As you've probably figured out by now, I have the honor of guest designing for Citrus Twist Kits this month!  Here are some closeups of my first layout - featured in my Q&A/Intro post, which you can read by CLICKING HERE.  February's kit is fantastic and so versatile...the colors and products are perfect for so many different kinds of layouts and I'm excited to share with you throughout the month all of the layouts I made from the kit.  Anyway, here's my first page showcasing one of many reasons my hubby is awesome. :)  Hope you enjoy!
