February BIG Savvy Sketch reveal

It was my turn this month to chose some inspiration from the Savvy Gallery to base our sketch on.

There was a huge amount of talent in the gallery which made my decision a little tough, but that is a problem I don't mind having ! 

This month I have chosen a gorgeous page created by Jo Burke from our recent Cybercrop. 
Thanks for the inspiration Jo :)

It's a busy time of year but thankfully I can still find a bit of time to get some scrapping done.

This month Chloe chose a gorgeous page from the Savvy gallery created by Rikki to base her December sketch on  and I really enjoyed my take on it.

Here is the sketch

December Savvy sketch

Last night after all were asleep, I spent a few quiet hours creating. My page features a photo of Harrison taken while we were at the Christmas pageant a few weekends ago. I actually got him to stand still for a few minutes as we were heading back to the car through the South Parklands.

I have used the We're Savvy September kit which I just loved playing with and there are still some available in-store

My page also features a few of my favourite WOW pieces, chipboard You, Wood Veneer Brush Heart and Chevrons Stripes.
