Whilst away on my retreat at Dukes Farm I caught up on a couple of Sketchy Scrappers challenges using these sketches...
Firstly "Prom Prep" using the Twenty Sixteen Like For Ever kit. I'd been saving my kits up and had a great time breaking into each one to make my pages! I added a few embellies from my stash (including the banner which hangs much better in real life!) and some lovely die cuts from Gemma that were a gift that weekend plus a PL card she gave me :)
Next up was this sketch which I found a bit daunting at first but then found a couple of photos in my (ever growing) pile that I wanted to put together and the rest was easy...
I used the same kit, even the tissue paper that wrapped it to mat the photos, and added a flair badge and another crate paper banner from my stash. I also tried the Inkie Quill packaging technique for the first time on this page which came out quite well. If you're not sure what that is then you can check out this video for the details...
The journaling reads... So proud; of your dedication to Scouting & Girlguiding; of you both being young volunteers; of the awards you have achieved...
Still a couple of pages left to share from the weekend and plenty more kit to use up yet!

really like how you used the sketch in the first layout but made it your own by differing the shapes and designs of the embellishments such as the bunting. Nice one.
Lovely! I only recently came across these kits - through Pinterest I think - and they do look very nice indeed.
Absolutely gorgeous
These are both so nicely done - and two lovely young people in them :). I especially admire the way you have anchored the top photo with those vertical and horizontal strips and papers.
Fabulous scrapping - you've done both challenges wonderfully - and complemented the chosen photos so well.
