Stuck?! June 1 Challenge Sketch


This sketch from the Stuck?! Sketches blog inspired me to get out my watercolor paints and brush! For the circle on this sketch, I chose for an imperfect, free-hand circle with watercolor. It was fun, quick and easy.

The border at the top and bottom of the page took a little more time -- but was totally worth it! Using a triangle paper punch, I dug into my bin of paper scraps to find several colors to make the pattern.

While the sketch called for only 1 photo, I wanted to include more pictures. To do this, decided to take an 11 inch long strip of paper and cut it to the same height of the main photo mat. Then I used a score board to fold the 11 inch long strip into sections (each as wide as the main photo mat).
