Happy Sunday everyone! Today's sketch is based on April's layout Love from her Story Hour gallery.
Our sketch contributer this week is Wendy Morris.
Here's what she had to say about her take on the April's sketch:
I am truly thrilled to share my take for this Sunday Sketch! This Sunday Sketch challenge was perfect to incorporate into this theme the "loves" of my life.
I was inspired by many elements of this sketch. However, the biggest piece that inspired me was the prominent title work of the word "love"...the stenciling, misting, the typography of the letters, and the accent of hearts in the corner of the page.
So, I decided to play a "mix" on this inspo by randomly repeating this play on "love" and hearts through out not just a layout but an entire altered mini album.
I practically swooned over the wood letters in the County Fair kit and used these at the focal letters through my project in a typography format similar to the sketch.
The very last page of the album takes the sketch to a layout level similar to the actual Sunday Sketch with a few different twists.
I chose the title of the altered project as "A New Day" to represent the new changes, new places, new experiences, along with my "new love" in a completely different country, in my life for 2012.
AWESOME......I LOVE THIS GIRLS WORK!!

Wendy is the queen of mini albums! Love all of the textures, colors, mists, and all the love she puts into her minis! Amazing!

Loved the "LOVE" mini! Thank you both, April and Wendy. I especially loved the use of different sized pages as opposed to all the same and being able to see each page a bit at a time. Thank you both for such an inspirational piece!

I'm so joining this challenge- this "love" theme is actually one of my all time favorite art works.
