Stuck?!

Here is my take on the sketch challenge over on the Stuck?! Challenge blog for May 15th.  I do love their sketches and this one immediately 'floated my boat' as soon as I saw it. 




One of the biggest challenges for me is to scrap more than one photo.. sometimes I go with two.. but rarely three.. so this was going to be a challenge from the off. Occasionally I 'cheat' and use a journalling card for the third photo if there is one in a sketch..however.. although it looks like there are three photos here.. there are really two.. as I cut the one in half of my two 'boys' .. I'd love to know what they were laughing at while they were standing at the altar waiting for the bride to arrive!






To emphasise the groom in this photo I matted his photo on a different colour background pps and I used my CKCB kit, May Madness, once again. 

There a lot of scraps used here but the mason jars are from an American Crafts range and the red dotty paper is a Dear Lizzy scrap. To finish it all off, I scuffed to edges of all the papers and added a few random stars.. as these men are all my 'stars' and as I'm proud of them too I finished with a Thickers sparkly black title 'Pride and Groom'.. another one for the wedding album!

Thanks for looking... and thanks for a GREAT sketch.
