Keeping the best May sketch challenge - The world is a stage


Well, what can I say... I tried to do something a little messy and arty on a black background, and it was quite an epic fail! I spilt white paint all over the corner, the sticker is an odd shape and looks wonky and I just couldnt make it work but nevertheless, its my entry for Keeping the best sketch 59 (below) so Im going to enter it anyway.

The photos are from a display at Swarovski Crystal World, Salzburg, Austria and it was one of the most bizarre nut amaing things Ive ever seen. The dummy pranced around in a circle to the music, breaking up then coming back together while trouser legs danced and kicked on a stage and business shirts flew around the room on hangers!

Im also entering this layout for
 XOXO Scrapbooking - Used WOW hexagon chipboards
 SWAT Drill #7 - tic tac toe. I used the bottom row, 3 different manufacturers (Kaisercraft, Creativ and Craft concepts), mist and paint and chipboard.

  2. Good for you for getting messy with your layout! You've gotta keep trying new things, even if they don't turn out as you envisioned. On my S.W.A.T. LO, I spilled the mist everywhere, but I ended up liking the result.
