celebrate - beautiful smile

Here is my first DT layout for Sketchabilities:

cardstock - Bazzill
patterned paper - BasicGrey, Sassafras Lass, Webster's Pages, Cosmo Cricket
rub-on - My Mind's Eye
transparency - Hambly
other - magic mesh, masking tape

My daughter's 3-year-old celebration - in Japan, parents with children of 7, 5 or 3 years old  celebrate their children's growth in November (the celebration is called 753). Children usually wear kimono (Japanese traditional dress) and go to a shrine with their parents and/or grandparents.

It was her first time to wear kimono. At first she was so excited, but soon got tired. (Being in kimono is a hard work!)
Anyway, the photographer did a great job and succeeded in shooting her smile :)

And here is the sketch:


I love this sketch, it's so beautiful! Don't you think so?

Come join us, I can't wait to see your wonderful creations :)

SketchabilitiesのDTレイアウトです。
娘の七五三のときの写真をつかいました。
珍しく、いい笑顔です。(いつもは不自然に笑ったり、舌を出したりして全然いい写真が撮れない…。)

Sketchabilitiesはスケッチがすごくきれいなので、是非一度このスケッチをお楽しみください。
ここだけの話、私は今回苦戦しましたが(笑)

  1. What a lovely tradition for your daughter as she is growing up and what a beautiful layout. I love the pops of bright colour against the white space and the way you have stitched the hearts and circles to look like a banner. Just Gorgeous!
