LO for SK Sketch #1

Good day to all!!!

First of all I would like to thank my dearest friend, Tessah, for featuring me on her site. I am new with this craft and she was the first friend that I had from this hobby. Love her so much! Thanks sis!

Also, because of her, I was able to discover other sites that showcases tremendous talents. I truly admire her for her talent, persistence, and passion for scrapbooking. She just started scrapbooking this January but I believe she's more passionate than I am, actively participating on challenges, forums, groups and a lot more. Because of her I was inspired to try some scrapping challenge. This challenge is from Scrappin Kids (http://scrappinkids.blogspot.com/).

The challenge is to create a LO based on their sketch #1, of course, highlighting "kids." I specifically chose this challenge from Scrappin Kids to be my first try because I love their main subject, KIDS!

Here is my take for SK Sketch #1:

Photobucket


Actually this LO is not yet done. No journaling yet because I was doing this while my baby was sleeping then when I picked her up, she was burning with fever already. I wasn't able to cut the lower part of the paper nga eh (I noticed it only when I uploaded the pic to my blog).

That's it for now! Need to take care of my baby for now.

The music notes were a piano piece I found online that I edited in Photoshop, added texture and gradient. Wala kasi akong makitang paper that will fit the color scheme so I decided to create one and printed it. The flowers however were originally drawn in a sketchpad then I used watercolor for it. Finally, I duplicated it sa Photoshop then printed it.

Actually madali lang yung photoshp, just install it and play with it. Ako kasi self-study lang din, kapa-kapa.

Once you scanned your illustration and openned Photoshop, theres an option there to duplicate the layer. By that your image is duplicated then you can resize each of the layers as you wish.
