Sketch #87 12x12


For my example I have used papers from Simple Stories "Summer Fresh" and MME "Miss Caroline" collections. For close ups and details, visit my blog HERE.
 

How cool is this page from Tami. I just love the colors she used and the Disney history of the page. Learn more and see details at Tami's Blog HERE.
 

Merrick sent me a great holiday page using this sketch. She used another sketch for page two - check it out here on her blog.  Thanks Merrick!

2 page sketch #16

Since 2 page layouts are so small on my blog, you just have to click on this example to really see how great the layout is. Another wonderful layout example from Tami! And doesn't it just make you want to do this sketch right now!? I love the little embellishments. This really is going to be a great page for things like 4th of july, and parades, don't you think? Visit Tami's blog HERE for close ups and a video of the wonderful flag ceremony.
and here is my layout using the Barefoot and Bliss Collection by Bo Bunny. For details and close up photos, visit my blog HERE

2 Page Sketch #15

My good friend, Tami, created the example layout for this sketch and you just have to love how perfect the Bo Bunny papers are for 4th of July with this sketch. Visit Tami's blog HERE for closeups and a video of the 4th celebration :) Thanks so much Tami!

Sketch #86 12x12




I enjoyed this Sketch but I made a few changes. Sometimes you are working on a sketch layout and you just want the title to be somewhere else, or one of the shapes just isnt making you happy. Well, change it! For my example I used Basic Grey's Eerie Collection. For details and close ups, visit my blog HERE

Sketch #85 12x12"

HAPPY NATIONAL SCRAPBOOK DAY WEEKEND!!! I hope all of you guys have planned to set aside some time to work on your scrapbooks. It is a holiday afterall! My Disney Scrappers site is going to be having some extra fun challenges so I created 4 sketches just for them and I thought I would share with all of you too. So there will be 4 NEW Sketches posted today to inspire your weekend layouts.
I totally had fun doing this sketch. I used the Basic Grey Picadilly collection with some cute flags from the new PB&J collection.
I have several examples of this sketch to share with you guys from some of my favorite Disney Scrappers. I will share just a few. This first one is from Nancy Burke. She used Basic Grey "PB&J which is ideal for lots of Disney photos as well as everyday photos. Visit Nancy's Blog here for details and more of her beautiful work.
Next is a super fun night time version from Laurie Zeller and she used some cool vintage Basic Grey "Lucky". Visit Laurie's Blog HERE for details and close ups.
Merrick did this fun Goofy page and you just have to love the colors and photos.

Sketch #84 12x12"

HAPPY NATIONAL SCRAPBOOK DAY WEEKEND!!! I hope all of you guys have planned to set aside some time to work on your scrapbooks. It is a holiday afterall! My Disney Scrappers site is going to be having some extra fun challenges so I created 4 sketches just for them and I thought I would share with all of you too. So there will be 4 NEW Sketches posted today to inspire your weekend layouts.
Here is the shape I used in case you want to use it, but you can certainly get the same effect with any shape that is about that size.
For my example I used a combination of DCWV Safari Stack, and Bo Bunny's Zoology. Love both collections because they are so perfect for zoo and Animal Kingdom layouts. The sketch shows a 4x6" photo but I used a 5x7" and easily you could make two 4x6" photos work in that spot.
Now I don't have girls but I just want to borrow Nancy's so I can copy this amazing page that she did. How cute is this!!! Love this sketch for a princess layout! Visit Nancy's Blog here.
Check out this just gorgeous layout by Tami. There is so much I love about this page, but I think the title from Sleeping Beauty is just the best part. Visit Tami's Blog here for all the details and even a video.
Michelle Powell did this totally tropical Typhoon Lagoon page and now I want to pull out my photos and do the same thing with this sketch!
Yep, I am thinking this sketch is super fun for summer. Just look at this completely fun summery page from Luz Maria Bruna! Great shaped paper and embellishments. Visit her blog here for more inspiration.

this one was fun and made me think of legos, but of course you could use squares, circles, diamonds...whatever shape you want. I used Echo Parks Sweet Summertime Collection.
Another really fun Disney example from Laurie. She used Basic Grey's "Indie Bloom" and isn't it just perfect for these fun photos! Visit Laurie's Blog here for more.
Nancy Burke shared this awesome Disney page from her husbands 40th birthday and the parks 40th birthday. I just love that. Visit Nancy's blog here for details and more awesome pages.
Pam used soft blue and yellow for this super cute 8.5 x 11" Donald layout. I love all the different looks with these different paper pieces.

I really enjoyed doing this sketch, but I wish I hadn't used the light cardstock background. I just love this October Afternoon "Sasparilla" collection, it's just the most perfect collection for Frontierland :)
My friend, Laurie, shared her fantasic layout example using Basic Grey Konnichiwa. Isn't it just beautiful with these papers? Visit Laurie's blog HERE for more info and close up photos.
