Little Yellow Bicycle February Sketch Challenge

 I haven't sketched in a while, but I have to say that this one feels really good and has a lot of opportunity to customize or just follow along.  Totally up to the beholder... Head over to the Little Yellow Bicycle Blog for details on the challenge.
 Just Because Layout

This page came together pretty quickly.  I have to admit that I was tempted to use one large 5x7 photo of my kids and call it good, but I love all of the pages I've been seeing with wallet-sized photos.  So, I compromised and used the same photo (in a wallet-size) three times to make the same impact with a litte more flair.  This picture of my kids really warms my heart, so I probably could have used it six times or more, but I tried some self-restraint - LOL
Have you checked out Little Yellow Bicycle's new Naturals collection???  It is a must have and I am not just saying that because I work for Little Yellow Bicycle.  I would buy these gorgeous embellishments regardless.  Look how this burlap heart totally fits in with the bright Just Because color scheme, but adds a little natural texture.  I just LOVE it!!!  And check out the other hearts you get in the package with this one... could have used any of them on this page.









Can you even stand another minute without these Naturals blue canvas letters that remind me of denim?  They were such a fun element to add to my page.  Not to mention that they come in other colors...
