sunday sketch

Don't adjust your monitors - this week's sketch has a bit of a tilt. This fun design is based on a page from Kinsey Wilson's Summer of '69 gallery entitled "Jealous Siri."

We couldn't wait to see what SC member Deb Duty would do with this inspiration. If you're a little way of working on a slat, that's okay - Deb shows us that this sketch looks just as good when you straighten it out!

(Supplies: kit - Summer of 69, stamps - Beautiful Project Life, wood veneer - Hearts and My Type, digital files - Summer of 69 Printable #1)

I was happy to work with a sketch based on one of Kinsey's layouts. She's always so creative with such great ideas on her layouts! I love the way she nestled her title between the strips of patterned paper. I mainly stayed true to the sketch except that I decided to straighten out my stripes and use a block for my journaling. I'm glad I waited until Summer of '69 arrived before I began. The colors in this kit are amazing and they went perfectly with the photos from my son's birthday a couple of weeks ago!

Deb's photos are so sweet, and this page is the perfect way to showcase them! You'll notice that she used her wood veneer embellishments to form a visual triangle - it's a perfect trick to move your eyes from her photos down to her journaling. If you'd like to see more of Deb's work, please visit her Studio Calico gallery or her blog.

Now it's YOUR turn to show us how you'll use the sketch. Whether it's a layout (two pages or one!), a card or something else, link us up to your project by August 20th for a chance to win a $5 gift card to the Studio Calico shop.
