Bub- Pages In Time Sketch of the Week



Here's DS1 not yet a year old in Milan in front of Castello Sforzesco. "Bub" is my father's nickname for my son.

This was done for the PAGES IN TIME weekly sketch challenge. Come add you own version of the sketch here. Karen updates her blog weekly with the latest sketch so pop over to her blog to check out the sketch here.

This is also a part of the PAGES IN TIME discussion group "Extreme Craft Make-Over." This is a group for crafters of all abilities levels to join and discuss an area they would like to improve. This month my personal area of improvement will be focal point. Come join us.

I also wanted to show how I made the title:
1. I covered letters (I cut from styryfoam) with drywall plaster. It goes on pinkish but dries white.

2. I painted the letters in copper penny. When that paint was dry, I painted over the copper with blue but sponged off the some of the blue to reveal the copper under the blue.
