Sketch Challenge Part 2
February 6th, 2010 |

I promised we’d be back again with part 2 of the sketch challenge. Here you will find two very differents layouts that again have been created using the sketch provided to Natalie and Kate.
Say Cheese!
“The poloroids were so much fun & some of them are hilarious to look back over! It was certainly a unique way to capture the personalities of guests”
This busy page has followed the main points of the sketch but with slight alterations which is a great way to ensure the sketch becomes your own. For example, rather than using a scallop edging all the way around the page, you can see here that a heart lace effect has been created using a Martha Stewart Punch.
The long thin rectangle element down the left hand side of the page in the original sketch has been turned into a collection of photos, maintaining the element of making the readers eye move down the page.
The horizontal strip has been maintained but recreated at the top to maintain a balance to the page against the business of the papers and the original rectangular strip has been replaced with a funky scallop edge.
The layering of the papers underneath the big box has been mantained, however the proportion and layering has been enhanced to provide more interest to the page. A title has also been added to balance out the photographs and journaling, along with a few embellishments, also to have balance out this piece.
When placed alongside the original sketch you can definatly see the likeness to this page, however it definatly has its own personality.
Our Day Out
“Mummy & Obie -x- A day out with auntie Sammie. We went to the flower market in Bristol & then to the horse sanctuary. You loved the big slides & all the childrens toys that they had there -x-
This page has again been created with the sketch as the starting point. However, it has been rotated around & the scallops are only on the main section of the page.
Clever eh?!? Do you see just how easy it is now to create scrapbook Pages with Sketches?!? We will be loading up a few of our own sketches in the next few weeks and we would love to see how you interpret these and make them your own……..

Absolutely gorgeous pages, I love the little hints and ideas.. the use of punches and colour to add life.
I’ve had so much inspiration today. I am off back to the real world now to give the kids lots of love and attention. Thank you for a wonderful party and I hope you enjoy the rest of yours xx
P.S – Was far too engrossed in the inspiration.. only managed one card and even though it started life as your sketch it ended up completely different.. oh dear!
Ha, I wondered where those polaroids were going to end up! Great pages. Like the way that the second page sort of reflects Obie too. Bet he chose the colours and the photo of him and his rarrahskate!
Mel, i’ve not done much better. I’ve managed 2 cards with some glimmer mist and a go at Sandra’s flowers. ** Kate **
What great combinations of colours and patterns.
I haven’t got much done either, too much time spent here reading and watching. Lots of ideas for tomorrow though/
lol ;-D It’s been a very busy day and we are sad that it is nearly over, but like you said Rosemary atleast we have plenty of ideas for tomorrow!
Thanks Mel! I’m glad you’ve had a great day – we have too! you’ll have to come back and join us in March!
wow such inspiration, and il be back again, have saved the sketches to have a play later, i have my 4 month nephew he interrupted my plans lol
