Last month I entered the Kaisercraft Saturday Sketch Competition with my Digital Layout "Wedding Day", which is a layout of my friends' wedding last November. I used the Kaisercraft Loire Valley Mega Kit. January was the first time that Kaisercraft had included Digital Sketches in their monthly Sketch Competition.
I couldn't believe I WON! The prize was 2 Mega Kits to the value of $19.98 of my choice. I chose the Apple Tree Mega Kit and the Grunge Kit.
My layout was based on the fabulous sketch provided by Brittney, thanks Brittney for the gorgeous sketch.
I decided that instead of using 2 photos I'd just use one for more impact. The sketch used a polaroid type frame for the photos but I replaced this with a gorgeous frame in the mega pack that just worked perfectly.
The background paper is Loire Valley Dahlia, which I reversed to suit the sketch (one of the advantages of Digital Scrapbooking over traditional Paper). I overlaid other papers, using masks to create the cut out shapes I wanted. I added other elements from the mega pack, including more birds, flowers and brads, some to mask patterns on the background papers that I didn't want showing in my final image.
There were a few more elements I would have liked to have added and if I'd had more time I would have fine tuned the masks and the text, but overall I was fairly happy with the final result.
Happy Scrapping.
