Saturday Sketch

To created your finished layout using this sketch:

1. Start with a dark cardstock.
2. Trim 1" from two sides of an 12x12 light monochromatic patterned paper (one that looks solid when seen at a distance). Using a corner rounder punch, trim each corner. Adhere to the cardstock.
   
3. Cut a circle from patterned paper. Cut the circle in half.
   
4. Trim three photos into diamond shapes of the same size.
   
5. Test placement of photos and half circles on layout. Once happy, adhere to background paper (adhering the half circles first, then the photos.)
6. Add a large title as shown.
7. Place brads, buttons, flowers or other embellishments in each of the four corners.
8. Finish by journaling.
   

Happy Scrapping!,

Sketch #24

Believe it or not, this layout was inspired from a scene in Ugly Betty. Like I revealed in my earlier post, my inspiration comes from everywhere.

I think this sketch is reminiscent of a French bulletin board with a file folder tucked under its ribbons.

Please send me your creations. I just love it when you share them with me.
