Revisiting our Mt Rushmore trip



This layout came about in such an odd way.    I've had the sketch from Make it Monday #54 at
"THE MEMORY NEST"  since it first appeared on their blog.    I just couldn't figure out what and if I could work with it.   Then yesterday I was shopping at Michaels and saw this package of Heidi
Swapp chipboard frames on clearance and bought a pack because this sketch came immediately to mind.    I haven't ever really used chipboard frames for a picture but now I might be hooked.

I started looking at old vacation albums and I realized I really didn't have that many pages scrapped from our trip to Mount Rushmores back in 2008 so I printed these pictures to use with the sketch.

I'm really pleased when I didn't give up on this sketch because I really like how it turned out.

Here is the sketch below and check out the details for the challenge........ HERE.
