Sunday Sketch | Amanda

This week, our layout sketch is an 12x12 layout with two small horizontal photos. Our card sketch features a grid of watercolor flowers and our Project Life sketch uses journaling directly over a 4x6 photo. Creative Team member, Amanda Caves, is joining us this week & sharing her take on our layout sketch. Be sure to follow Amanda here at SC to see more of her work and keep up with her.

First, let's look at this week's sketches - our 12x12 layout sketch comes from Marcy Penner's Paint layout:

Our card sketch comes from JJ Bolton's Watercolor Blooms card:

And our Project Life sketch comes from Nicole Reave's Summer PL spread:

Here's Amanda's take on this week's layout sketch:

I chose to use the sketch from Marcy's Paint layout for the basis of this layout for my summer minibook. I loved the grid layout of her design and all of the embellishments she used to showcase her images. I chose to use the patterned paper from the 4x6 paper pad, and pulled my embellishments based on the colors in the paper.

Supplies: paper: Studio Calico grid paper, Sandlot 4x6 paper pad; sequins: Studio Calico Studio Selections; embellishments: October Afternoon and Basic Grey and Studio Calico; tools: Tiny Attacher
