Sunday Sketch | Jen Chapin

This week our scrapbook sketch is a 9" x 12" layout featuring centered journaling in the top section on the page, with two photos below and a title in the bottom right-hand corner. Our card sketch is a horizontal card with a focal point and title in the bottom right-hand corner. And our pocket page sketch features a 3" x 4" journaling card with a circular element and a 3" x 4" photo card with a simple sentiment.

And here's Jen's take on our scrapbook sketch:

Hi there! Jen here, and today I'm sharing a layout I created with the "Gypsy Moon" Kits based on a layout by Mandie Pierce. I loved creating my take on this layout. I started with a few photos of my daughter at the talent show this summer. She did such a great job and I really wanted to make sure I documented it!

For the background of the page, I used a piece of Studio Calico grid paper from my stash, then layered on some patterned paper from the Scrapbook Kit. I also added a bit of navy cardstock for some contrast.

Next, I adhered my photos and stamped my title above them using this month's stamp subscription stamp. To finish off the layout, I added a wood ampersand and some stickers from the add-on kit. I cut my journaling into strips and adhered those to the bottom of the page. Thanks so much for stopping by the blog today and I hope you'll try this sketch soon because it's a great one! Have a good week!
