Atlantis - June 5th Sketch

Welcome. Welcome dear friends.

 

Jane with you today.

 

You will know our sad news by now.

 

After five and a half years Nanne and Leah have

 decided, after much soul searching,

 to close down the challenges here at

Stuck On U Sketches.

 

I have been with them on the full journey - from

 Sketch No 1 in 2009!

 

And I was so delighted when they asked me to join the

 Design Team in June 2011.

 

I am so going to miss the fortnightly sketches

 from my beautiful friends.

 

So, in honour of my beautiful friends here

 at SOUS I decided to break into my

 treasured collection of

Graphic 45 papers!

 

Shock, horror.

 

Yes, I have EVERY G45 collection,

 and it takes a very special

 occasion to actually use it - LOL!

 

So, here is my take on the penultimate

 sketch from our Nanne...

Using Graphic 45 "By The Sea"

Always plenty of images for fussy

 cutting with G45.

The stunning Atlantis Hotel in Dubai.

 Hubby and I stayed here for five nights in 2012.

What an Hotel!

 It even has a massive aquarium inside!

 We were super impressed.

 It is truly magnificent.

The chipboard reeds are from

 Twiddleybitz "Bulrush & Butterfly"

 (I cut the butterfly off!)

 

To get the effect on the bulrushes,

 I mixed three different embossing

 powders together.

This is a great sketch to showcase five photo's

 on one page, something we

 don't do enough of.

We hope you have time to join us with

 this penultimate sketch.

 

And remember, there's only one more......

 

Hugs until then...
