V is for Verse

This month we have chosen Steph Devlin's beautiful colourful layout to lift.

You can find more of her stunning creations here.

 

This is what Steph had to say about herself:

"Mad scrapping artist, passionate about life and her art. Adores her family to bits.

Interests: hobbies: scrapping (of course), drama, acting (even though I'm really bad), movie watching (omg so addicted), anything to do with the arts. Favourite actors: Cate Blanchett & Kenneth Brannagh."

Use Steph's layout for inspiration and create a layout of your own - we would like to see you add a verse, poem or saying. If you are really not interested in adding words - please feel free to just follow the sketch.

We drew our sketch as always
