From my Sketchbook
This month's Sketchbook Challenge theme of doodles has really triggered something in me.
I got the idea to layer a piece of Strathmore Translucent Vellum, that I already had, from one of the ideas in Jill K. Berry's book, Personal Geographies.
I'll be doing a Valentine tutorial on this blog on January 25, and I'll show you how I created a journal page like this and then, use the image to create a valentine card and envelope.

I love your doodles! They remind me of the tiles you took pix of in Cuba! Wish I could figure out how to do something like that on shirts... hmmm! Food for thought!
