February's sketch is by our very own Lene Bjornerud! Lene brings a gorgeous style to our team. We expected no less when we asked her to compose February's Build-A-Page sketch for us. Just look at her marvelous composition! It doesn't matter if your style is clean or totally grungy, this sketch will work for you! (Aren't those background circles perfect for one of our new stencils?)
We want to extend a personal invitation and invite you to join in on the BAP fun this month. All you have to do is create a Prima-based project and submit it right here on this post (scroll to the bottom for the link) by the last day of February! We will pick a lucky winner in early March to receive a Prima prize.
Need a little inspiration? Here are a few marvelous samples by our DT, Educators, and amazing Guest Designer! We were just amazed at the different results using the same sketch as the base. It just goes to show you how each person is so uniquely talented!
Introducing: Zeneva Kovic
My name is Zeneva and I am a sole parent to three beautiful and healthy children who feature in all my layouts. We live in a lovely regional sea-side town in the southern part of Australia. I work as an accountant and love to spend my spare time being creative. At the moment I enjoy making layouts with some background detail, stitching, and layers. Like most, I'm also loving mists, sprays, and paste as well. Thank you, Prima for this wonderful opportunity to be a Guest Designer.
Zeneva mixed a beautiful palette of greens and pinks to create her stunning layout! Keeping the basic elements from the sketch in similar locations Zeneva then added embellishments which complimented and framed the sweet picture!
Kelly Foster chose to add a second photo for this sketch, as she just couldn't decide between the two super adorable pics! Our new Free Spirit collection allowed Kelly to capture her little girl's fun and goofy personality. Watercolor paints, and a few touches of gold here and there, tied it all together.

I would love to join this, too bad I don't have any of Prima stuff :/ I like in Italy and there are not so many retails here. Maybe for my birthday I'll make an order on line somewhere and take part of these awesome challanges!
I'm already so inspired!
