Sunday Sketch | Geralyn Sy

This week, our layout sketch is an 8.5x11 layout with a paper grid background and center photo. Our card sketch features hand-cut elements and great use of stamps, and our Project Life® sketch uses a 4x4 photo on a 4x6 card and a 3x4 journaling card. Get creative and be sure to share your projects here with us! We can't wait to see what you create! Creative Team member Geralyn Sy is joining us this week and sharing her take on the scrapbook sketch! Be sure to follow Geralyn here at SC to see more of her work and keep up with her.

Our layout sketch comes from Maggie Massey's Hooray layout:

Our card sketch comes from Keisha Campbell's Happy Birthday card:

Our Project Life® sketch comes from Maren's spread:

For today's Sunday Sketch, I chose Maggie's beautiful layout as my inspiration and blueprint of my page. I followed her design quite closely and I love the idea of placing a photo on top of a grid of patterned papers. I chose 9 squares instead of 4 for my grid and did some minimal embellishing. I used the Max and Molly alpha stamps for my title! This layout came together so quickly with the help of the sketch as my starting point.

Supplies: Fairground Scrapbook Kit, Galileo 4x6 Paper Pad, Venus, Max alpha stamps, Molly alpha stamps, ink - Versafine, Color Theory Mint Hint, pen - Muji
