CAPT THOMAS

Today's layout is a photo from my younger son's 7th birthday party at the submarine USS Ling.  I chose my papers for the challenge over at Child's Play for the art supply toy Spirograph which I loved playing with growing up.  I used this weeks sketch from Let's Get Sketchy and the technique of the month - layering, distressing, inking from Paper Secrets.

Here is the toy:


and the sketch:


and finally - the layout:


Your comments are so appreciated!  Thanks for stopping by!
