Hello and Welcome to a new challenge day over at the Memory Nest. Today we have a sketch with a twist challenge. The twist this week is to do a monochromatic layout. I decided to go with oranges this week.
I had this great picture that my daughter took of herself when she was about 2 1/2 years old. She thought it was so cool to use mommy's camera to take pictures. I have some really funny ones that she has taken. I thought this one was really great because it showed her excitement and fantastic smile while she was trying to figure out the camera and take a picture of herself.
I took a lot of liberty with this sketch and twist. I struggled with it at first because I had a lot of trouble getting past the snowflakes. Once you get past the having to use snowflakes, it is a really great sketch to work with. I rotated my layout 90 degree to fit the photo that I was using.
I kept it pretty clean and simple this week. Let's take a look at my overall:
And a few close-ups...

Wonderful story with a wonderful photo. :) My kiddos love taking photos too and I keep thinking I should put together a little album with their photos but never do. I love that you actually scrapped one of her pics.
