Once Upon A Sketch August 1st sketch Challenge

Hello to you all,

I absolutely enjoy doing OUAS Sketch Challenges.. They so inspire me to scrap and also because they make me put my own little touch on my layout of  journalling!!!

This fortnight is:

AUGUST 1st CHALLENGE

Journalling Criteria: Finish this line "A PERFECT DAY IS....." . Your journalling has to be at least 2 lines long, and with the theme of a whatever a perfect day for you is or a perfect day that you have had already e.g.  a birthday, a holiday, a childhood memory, a wedding day, graduation day etc. Your journalling can be ANY type : handwritten, typed, etc...

You MUST combine our journalling criteria with this sketch...

so here is the sketch:

And my take on it:

And of course some close up's LOL

OK just a quick note to let you all know that because I sold my business a month ago I promised my boys that mummy & daddy would take them on a holiday (this is our first one)

So we are heading off first thing in the morning

So please forgive me for not commenting on your blog for the next 4ish days  i will be thinking of you all and i will try my very best to catch up on those comments as soon as i get back!!!

But please all my dear and lovely followers please do bare with me because i will be scrapping as much as i can, but right now and a little into the future i really just want to relax and enjoy my time as a SAHM again and do those little things that i have missed out on in the past year, like play with the boys, catch up with friends, home cooking, etc etc. so please dont forget me, cause i will still be here and i will be scrapping, but just here there and everywhere!!!!!!!!
