Scrapbooking Global Sketch Challenge


Happy Spring!  (if you are in the Northern hemisphere anyway)  This month our blog hop will be inspired by a sketch.  I love using sketches to help create my layouts.  That means I have to think a little less, which is always a good thing!


Our sketch was chosen by a guest designer, Margaret.  I love the versatility of this sketch!  It was pretty easy to make my photos fit the sketch.


Here is the great sketch, isn't it a fun one?


This is the layout I made with the sketch.  Of course, I didn't get it finished until dark and the color doesn't film well without the natural light coming in the windows.  You can barely see the stamped borders of branches from the Perched In  A Tree stamp set, along with the little dots from another stamp in that set that I used to add a little texture to the layout.  The DSP is the beautiful Countryside Inn paper.  For fun I used 2 alphabet sets, the Mini Alphabet dies an the Alphabet A La Mode dies.  As always, I feel like it needs something more but I just haven't figured that out yet.  If you have an idea, please post it in the comments so I can try it!
