Hi Everyone!
I hope everyone is enjoying their Thursday, over here in Melbourne we have enjoyed a beautiful hot spring day today, which I was able to fit in a layout that I have created for Once Upon A Sketches November competition! They have a great sketch for this month, which I felt a MUST to join! If you are also interested in joining the challenge this month click HERE!
With this sketch, the jouranalling theme is Inspiration/inspired by etc. I decided to use my dad as my inspiration because well....he is one of my inspirations! Dad is and will always be there for me whenever I need him, I know his only a phone call away. Dad has worked extremely hard to get where he is today and to provide for my family, and I can't express how inspired I am by my dad for his work ethic, his love and his compassion.
The final layout:
I have switched the title and journalling around (hence: title is on right side instead of left)
The Sketch:
I applied gesso around the edges of the photo to create a softer look as I didn't like the sharpness of the photos.
If you have any comments, please feel free to leave them below!

Love your gesso on the photo edges idea, the little crosses for the bg texture & those film strips....most of all I adore that you've got a good Dad who inspires you!
