Obsessed With Sketches

The Ella Publishing blog has a new challenge series, Stretch Your Sketches. When I saw this, I knew I had to play along. I am obsessed with sketches lately. I am also taking Kelly Purkey's Sketchbook 3 class. I find that I get tons of layouts done when I have a sketch to inspire my creating.

Here is my take on the sketch.





















This layout is close to the original sketch. But I used two 4x6 photos instead of one 5x7. Sometimes, I use the sketch exactly and other times it takes me in a different direction. This is what I love about sketches. There are always so many possibilities and you can never go wrong.

Hi Sara, I love how you adapted the sketch. You are absolutely right, you can't go wrong with a sketch. =) Use it as it is or make it your own. Thanks for playing along in our series!

Love that you madethis sketch work for you.
I keep meaning to use sketches, as I have so many layouts to do and hopefully they will help me get something done.
