Happy Monday, everyone! It's Monday and that means it's time for another weekly sketch challenge! Remember, you can play along with any of the sketches all month for your chance to win one monthly Lily Bee Prize package, so we hope you play along! More details at the end of this post.

Michi is here with us today, with a fun sketch that includes a playful title placement. Take a look!

I'm loving the simple take on her sketch, yet, she offers the ability to include layers, which is always fun! Let's take a look at what Michi came up with using her sketch!

Her darling page featuring her son, (who always has the best expressions) is simply delightful! We love how she used patterned paper, Index Journaling Cards as well as several pieces from our Bag of Bits to really bring your eye in toward her adorable photo.

Here's a detailed image of her intricate layers. 

How fun that she created the center to her little embellishment out of a button piece from our Bag of Bits. Just so sweet. And her beautiful use of white spray mist in the center of her page, really lightens up her background paper, so that you eye is drawn inwards towards the center of her layout. Beautiful work, Michi!
