Happy Thursday everyone! Marcy here with a sketch for your Thursday. It's all rainy and gloomy here... so what better way to spend the day than to scrapbook? And if you've been blessed with warm weather I'm sure you can find some time in the coming week to play with paper! ;)
Here's the sketch.
It would be easy to substitute multiple photos where the one photo sits... change the column of circles into stars... rotate it... whatever!
I asked Amy to play along and here's what she did.
I absolutely love how the cream paint softens the area where the patterned papers meet! You can clearly see how her page is divided into two sections... just like the sketch.
From Amy.
For Marcy's sketch I stayed pretty true to the original, just swapping some pieces around here and there. Instead of using circles up in between the two pieces of paper, I decided to use my Alpha Stickers from Woodland Park to fill that space. I also used my daughter's initial "L" in a couple different places on the layout, utilizing them as additional embellishments in my clusters. This is a great way of using up those fun alpha stickers we all love.
I decided to replicate the column of circles with the butterfly paper from the Woodland Park line.
I left the banners as is and layered the rest of the elements on my page.
It was a lot of fun to mix up Woodland Park and Cakewalk :) They worked really well together!
Thanks for stopping by today. And if you use the sketch, we'd love to see your layout posted in our Flickr gallery.
I played with this sketch on the LCOM Blog!! http://letscaptureourmemories.blogspot.com/2012/08/using-sketch-using-only-patterned-paper.html

Thanks for the fun sketch!
I just posted my layout inspired by your sketch, though it ended up quite different by the time I was done!
