Sunday Sketch | Aga
Tags:This week, our layout sketch is an 8.5x11 layout patterned paper strips and a diamond design. Our card sketch features a trio of large die cut shapes and our Project Life sketch uses a 3x4 photo and a small embellishment with lots of room for journaling. Creative Team member, Agnieszka Malyszek, is joining us this week & sharing her take on our scrapbook sketch! Be sure to follow Aga here at SC to see more of her work and keep up with her.
Our 8.5x11 sketch comes from Tracy Armstrong's Hello Fresh Start layout:

Our card sketch comes from Keisha Campbell's You Are So Sweet card:

Our Project Life sketch comes from Lisa Truesdell's JNHS spread:

And here's Aga's take on our scrapbook sketch:
My favourite part about working with sketches is that how easily you can adapt them to your needs or to the supplies you have on hand. They are always a perfect starting point for any card or layout! For my card today, I used the scrapbook layout sketch as my inspiration but I flipped it 90 degrees clockwise.

First, I made some ink splatters to the card background. Next, I mixed a digital flower stamp (printed out in pink and watercoloured with salmon Neocolor II crayon) with fussy cut flowers from the patterned paper. For the title I used the 'hello' craft die along with a label sentiment. Finally, I added a few star stamps to finish my card off.

Supplies: Studio Calico Kits - Far Far Away Card Kit (patterned paper, star stamp, pastel crayon), Far Far Away Project Life Kit Stamps, Ink - Color Theory Ink Pad (Inky Black), Other - Hello Craft Die, label maker

Loved the vertical layering of the patterned paper from the scrapbooking sketch. This is what transpired...

For some reason, I've been slow to incorporate diamond shapes. Thanks for the sketch! That helps. http://www.studiocalico.com/galleries/152543-sunshine-rainbows
