Enjoy 31

Hi there! Hope all is well! It's time for an all new Once Upon A Sketch Challenge! The journaling theme this month is "My Happy Place". 

Here's the sketch we will be playing with:

I scrapped a photo of myself that was taken at one of my most favorite happiest places ~ Venice, Italy. The city is quite beautiful to say the least and is a definite must see!

To create the background, I combined pretty patterned from the 13arts Faces of Spring collection along with the Rose Builder stencil, stamps, lots of texture mediums and acrylic paints. Once the background was completed, I embellished with a variety of die cuts including a pretty butterfly made using Die-namics Fancy Butterflies dies.

For the title, I framed a sentiment from Tropical Sensations:

I journaled on a die cut tag which I embellished with a die cut gear that was made using a die from Time Pieces. I added a crackle coating to the Imaginarium Designs chipboard Swirl Designs pieces that are adhered on top of the photo:
