Sunday Sketch | Celine

This week, our layout sketch is an 12x12 layout with one square photo and layers of patterned paper squares. Our card sketch features a banner with lots of room for fun background designs and our Project Life sketch uses a 3x4 photo and a scattering of stars. Creative Team member, Celine Navarro, is joining us this week & sharing her take on our layout sketch. Be sure to follow Celine 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 Natalie Elphinstone's Turning 7 layout:

Our card sketch comes from Dana Fleckenstein's Teacher You're Awesome card:

And our Project Life sketch comes from Allison Waken's 12 spread:

And here's Celine's take on our Project Life sketch:

Sketches always inspire me. This one was no exception. I chose this sketch because I wanted to work with a full photo page on the right. I edited my photo in Photoshop and used some Studio Calico brushes in the middle of it, creating my title with one of them. I then printed it on white cardstock. The Studio Calico exclusive paper on the left page was just perfect to create my journaling/titles. I simply replied to each "question" with different alpha sticker, added some embellishments, and worked with two different Studio Calico dies (that I am in LOVE with) for my journaling and title. I hope this layout inspires you as much as the sketch does!

Now it's your turn! Make a project using one of this week's sketches as a starting point, then share it in the Studio Calico gallery. Use the hashtag #SCsketch to make it easier for other members to find! Leave us a link to your project by August 25th in the comments here to be entered to win a $5 GC to the Studio Calico Shop. This week's sketch winner will be announced in the September 6th Layout of the Week post.
