Lily Bee Sketch #9

I caught this sweet tender moment at the wedding a couple of weekends ago. It still melts my heart. Big sister simply said, "C'mon McClain. Let's dance." And off they went to the dance floor by themselves. I used Patricia's Lily Bee sketch (also known as sketch #9) to capture this sweet simple moment.
the sketch:

 "A Simple Moment Like this"


I tried to keep true to the sketch while keeping true to my design style too. To do that, I stuck mainly to the center portion of the sketch, but added a little to the top too. The journaling reads: "Happiness is...watching your oldest dance with your youngest and enjoying the moment."  I used Lily Bee's Hopscotch papers and stickers. Then added a little Bella Blvd. designer's tape, a wooden button and alpha stickers, Prima canvas and burlap flowers, Tattered Angels ink (still wondering why it bled this time), Twinery twine and an inked doily. 

And that's all for today. Pretty soon I'll be sharing some fun projects from the Bella Blvd./Twinery team-up. So stay tuned for those!

Happy Monday!

Love what you did with the sketch D. I tried to work with it last week, but nothing was coming to me. It just has way more large details on it than I'm use to playing with. Your take looks great!
