Sunday Sketch | Steph

This week, our layout sketch is a 12x12 layout with colorful paint strokes and a scattering of embellishments. Our card sketch features a trio of banners, and our Project Life sketch uses a square photo and banner for journaling. Creative Team member, Stephanie Baxter, is joining us this week & sharing her take on our card sketch. Be sure to follow Steph 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 Anna Maria Wolniak's Hello Summer layout:

Our card sketch comes from Chari Moss' Yippee! card:

And our Project Life sketch comes from Shanna Noel's Project Life spread:

Here's Steph's take on our card sketch:

As soon as I saw the card sketch, I fell in love with the big flag shape and had the idea of using it on a traditional scrapbook page. I created a cut file in Photoshop with the quote and sent it to cut through my Cameo, along with Kim Stewart's amazing cut files for this month! I used my Mister Huey's watercolours to paint the flowers and leaves and part of the flag shape. I love the pop of colour these elements give the page!

Supplies: Penny Arcade paper pad; Penny Arcade Project Life kit; High Striker; Bottle Toss; Penny Arcade cut files by Kim Stewart; SC grid paper; More white cardstock; Mister Huey's watercolors
