05/04/16 - April "Gallery Inspiration" Challenge

My layout for the April "Gallery Inspiration" Challenge over at Scrapbook.com.

This was the inspiration layout chosen for me:

 

 "My Little Girl"

SB.com Link: My Little Girl

 

 

 

 And my layout:

 

"What  Are You Gonna Do About it?"

Journaling:

"Panini knows she's not allowed on the table, but took advantage of the fact that my usually clean table is a bit cluttered right now and hid amongst the "mess".

Look at that face.... even after I found her she still gave me that defiant "what are you

gonna do about it?" look.  Not gonna lie, I did absolutely nothing, LOL!

The original layout is beautiful and I love all the inking and colors and layers!

So that's the features I chose as the inspiration for my layout.

 

However, I'm not very good at inking so I did minimal.

Unfortunately I don't like the way it came out: the yellow dried to an ugly shade (as far as inking is concerned) and the stencil shape shows up to much... I didn't want viewers to be able to tell I used a rectangle shaped stencil...but oh well... nothing I can do about it now!

 

The layering was fun, as I enjoy layering and frequently use it on my layouts.

But I had a little bit of trouble this time around...

I'm pretty sure it's because I waited until the deadline day to create my layout; talk about pressure, LOL!

I really wanted to use MORE layers to better mimic the original, but time didn't permit.

 

Overall I'm pleased.
My favorite part, besides the photo?  That "devil cat"! :0)
