Your Faces

by ElsieBNov 11, 2005
I've been looking for a way to scrap Rosie's "faces" for awhile and this sketch worked perfectly! I scanned a bunch of her drawings and then resized them so I could use them together in this layout. What you see in the layout are not her actual drawings, but scanned and resized versions of them.

Journaling:
You love to draw faces. You started drawing them when you started preschool back in August and I now have dozens of your faces, each one a masterpiece in its own right. To the untrained eye, your faces might all look the same, but you know the difference. You know which ones are happy and which ones are sad. You know which ones are me and which ones are you. You always start with a circle. Then you add eyes, a nose and a mouth. When the eyes look like vertical lines, that’s because it’s a sad face and the eyes are crying. You recently started adding hair and I love the wild, Rosie hair look you give to some of your faces! If asked to draw something else, you say you don’t know how and then you draw another face. I love your faces…each and every one!

Materials used:
Patterned papers, alphaset (title) and ribbon: KI Memories (Keepsake collection)
Various cardstocks (pink, beige and brown)
Smiley face charm: Pebbles Inc. (I Kandee)
Rub-on letters: Doodlebug
Brown brads: American Crafts
Chalk ink (dark brown and pink pastel): Color Box

Thanks for looking!
