A SoSketchy Page

Posted on | December 11, 2008 | 8 Comments |

Here’s a page that I did based on a SoSketchy sketch. Awesome sketch!!! It’s an 8.5×11 sketch but really, you can adjust sketches to whatever size you want.

If you look really closely I followed the sketch. Instead of three pictures, I have a vertical one on the left and one horizontal piece on the right. Instead of journaling, I did an elements collage on the bottom right. There are three strips of different pattern paper behind the pictures and there is a circle or half circle behind the bird on the top left. The rest… just got digi happy with Bisontine’s Noel Chic kit at Shabby Pickle. Love love!!!

Ok… I didn’t know this… but I went to the post office yesterday to mail out a couple packages and the clerk asked if I have cards inside the packages. I said yes and he charged me an extra $.42. WHAT!?!?! I was surprised, thought it was a new thing. It was the first time for me. But when I got back to work, my colleague said it’s been like that. Wow! It seems so weird, I mean I’m already paying for the weight, with card included, that I think my card shouldn’t be charged extra. Oh well… now I know.

I was so proud of myself though since I got a few cards and packages out earlier than usual. Have a great day!!!

Fanatastic page, Savitri! So many nice touches!

I’ve never heard of the postage thing! I guess any way they can make money, they’re gonna do it!

I can’t believe the postage thing. You have already paid to ship the card essentially. I’d write the USPS and complain.
Great layout!

Wow! What a gorgeous page! You always blow me away with your pages!

And no, I don’t believe that story about the post office! There’s no way! Are you pulling one of those Candid Camera deals?!
