I hope you are all well and have settled nicely into the new year. I've been working hard, desperate to do well in my A2 modules this January. I still have them all to come over the next 3 weeks, so don't have much time to spare for anything else.
I came on Blogger the other day to be greeted with the devastating news that Sketchy Thursday's will be no more. I absolutely LOVE that sketch blog, the sketches were so inspirational and easy to use and interpret, and the friendly community over there was so welcoming. It's a big shame to see them go, but on the other hand, with my work load as high as it is at the moment, I can fully appreciate how much work and other commitments can get in the way. I had to find a little pocket of time to create a scrapbook page using their final sketch, so over the weekend I slipped in a little scrapping here and a little there. Here's the finished page.
I have used a pad of paper sent to me from the lovely Suzanne as a thank you for being on the TPV design team. So this is a farewell page in many ways, a farewell to sketchy Thursdays, a farewell to being on the TPV DT, and a farewell to 2011.
The journalling reads :
A big year. The year I finish my A levels and go to university. The year I become more independent and begin to travel. Bring it on, I can't wait!!
Here are a few close ups. I hope you like it.
Thanks for popping by. I hope you are all keeping well, sorry for my absence, I'll be back after these exams as I will have Kirsty's Just One Sketch Class to catch up with and share :)
Bye for now, and farewell Sketchy Thursday's, thanks for all of those brilliant sketches.
