Good Morning! It's mid November which means time for new challenge reveals.  First up is the new sketch at Stuck?! Sketches. Once again, our co-challenge this month is with Scrap It With a Song. Their inspiration song is Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin. Without further ado, here is the new sketch: 

Here is my page. I love this sketch and everything that can be done with it. I wasn't feeling the circle, so I replaced it with a 4x6 photo instead. Because I chose busy patterns in my papers, I left the edges blunt, but I added banner shaped stickers to add interest. I oversized the embellishment clusters, well, just because. 


My song inspiration comes from the very first line of the song: "There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold". I used gold glitter, and a photo of my Grandma, who always wore gold. I'm pretty sure this is the last photo of us together. Im not sure the is what I had in mind for this photo, but my Grandma took pride in her appearance, always wore jewelry, and taught me to be the same way. So maybe the gold, and flowers and femininity of the page is just right after all. 

There are two great sponsors for this challenge. Please read the rules on the Stuck?! Sketches blog:

A $15 GC is up for grabs. If yu haven't played with Freckled Fawn goodies, you will love what you find there.

A $20 GC to get yourself some more embellishing goodies
