Sunday Sketch

Maggie here with this week's Sunday Sketch based on Vee's layout from Candy Shoppe!

I loved this sketch and layout the instant I saw it! With the small photo and the fun embellishments/design, I knew it was right up my alley!

* I've had this photo that I took of Emily and her daddy with my phone printed for a while but hadn't scrapped it yet. It was a small everyday moment that I only have one photo of but it is definitely deserving of a layout so this one-photo sketch was the perfect fit!

* The punched circles drew me right in and I noticed those first so I really focused on those and even added more than the sketch shows.

* I also liked the placement for the title and followed that part as well.

 

* Finally I loved how the stamped images balanced out the page and drew your eye out across the layout so I used that design element too, although I changed it up a bit and used some tapes instead of stamping.

 

* The hand written journaling was also a natural fit for me and my style. I just moved it down on the page to a different spot.

Scrapping from a sketch definitely makes it fun and easy to complete a layout in a short amount of time! It is awesome to be inspired by someone else's design and yet fun to add my own little variations as well in order to make it unique to me! Now it is your turn to be inspired and have fun with this amazing sketch!! Be sure to upload your layouts by February 21st and add a link to this post for a chance to win one of 2 $5 gift cards! Good luck!
Maggie

I had fun making a page with this template and a bunch of new (to me) techniques explaining how inspired I am by the box of Studio Calico goodies!
