Sketch #133
Today I am sharing a couple of my example layouts for my blog feature on Scraptastic Club Blog HERE. Visit the blog for details.
For my layouts I am using the October "Thriller" kit, add on kit, and stamp set.
First I will share the sketch that inspired the two layouts below. Sketch #133
For my first example I have replaced the hexagon design area with a combination of my title letters to spell out "Halloween Ornaments" and some of the leftover alphas. This is a fun way to use up extra alphas that you have left in sets where you have used the most common letters. I especially love these glitter letters for a sparkly page element.
For my next example I rotated the sketch to the left, used 3 photos rather than the one, and for the long strip of paper I cut out the title "Halloween" about the same length and tucked it behind my photos. Also in the sketch there is a stitched line element that I have replaced with my journaling.

Sketch #122
And here is my example using some older BasicGrey Basics and Lauderdale. Are you guys using up your stash?
Sketch #121
For my example I moved the photo a little but followed the sketch pretty closely. Since it's National Scrapbook weekend, I am trying to dig deep and use up my stash. These papers are mostly MME, but the background paper and burlap are from DCWV.
Sketch #120
Use that Panoramic feature on your camera, or crop a photo to create a long photo. You can even put two 4 x 5.5" photos together if you like.
Nancy Burke created an example for us today and she turned the sketch on its side for a dramatic page. I cant even believe that she hand cut the Matterhorn and made all these flags, but it's fantastic!
Sketch # 119
Happy National Scrapbook Day - Weekend! I am a bit behind here but I have 4 sketches with examples for you guys! A couple of guest designers have created examples for us and I think you guy's will be very inspired! I know I am. I created two large photo sketches because we really haven't done that much at Sketch Savvy but I know you guys have some photos that you want to really show off.
Now for a different take on the same sketch, Nancy Burke created this gorgeous layout. The one thing I really love about the sketch is the fact that you can have a giant photo and still showcase close up shots or people, like Nancy did here. And isn't the gold a perfect accent. Visit Nancy's Blog HERE.
