Welcome to monthly Sketch/Scraplift challenge! Each month, I will post either a sketch, or a LO for you to lift, or draw inspiration. Here is the LO SKETCH challenge for July: From Elle's Studio Blog  Ok, here's my take!  As you know, in scraplifting/using sketches, your LO's can end up looking exactly like the inspiration piece, or you can let your creativity run wild!  These are just jumping off points to get you rolling. Have fun, and link your LO's back to this thread so that we can all see your piece of art and give you some lovin'!  admin , please add to the master list. Thank you! I can't wait to see what you create! |

Thanks, KikiPea ! This one is urging me to try some of those embellishment clusters I have been wanting to try. Maybe on the weekend... |

Here is mine. It doesn't look much like the sketch, but the page is divided and separated with twine rather than washi tape.  bd 14 party by Gramma Dee, on Flickr |

The sketch is just for inspiration, and a starting point. You used it exactly how it should be used. Adorable pics. Love the twine, and use of PL card for the title. |

grammadee I love your take on the sketch. It's hard to mix 3 photos with different orientations.

I do! I especially like the way you used the project life card; I must remember that. I didn't even realize that's what it was--I thought you just stacked your title that way. I don't do project life, but I still have somehow acquired some cards that I need to incorporate in my regular layouts. I like the color scheme you used too. It complements the lovely pizza. (I'm still taking notes on your Chicago food layouts ) |

Okay, ladies, here's mine! Can't wait to see more! I love everything about this--the color scheme, the font, the photos, the message, the embellishments. . . I especially like the woodgrain paper. I wish I was bold enough to use my writing on my layouts. I used to have nice legible handwriting, but not any more. Even when I try to write neatly, it's just all scraggly. Thanks for the inspiration! |

I like your use of twine as the dividing line. I never remember to use twine. It looks like you made little notches on the side to keep it in place--good idea! I'll have to remember to do that too if I ever remember to use my twine. |

Here is mine. Thanks mikklynn for inspiring me to scrap about FOOD I've been wanting to make a layout about this place since my friend came for a visit.
And thank you KikiPea for the inspiration. This came together so quickly and I finally used an old piece of SEI paper I've been hoarding . I should use sketches more often. Hmm, I forgot to finish fixing my stamping mistake before I took the photo. (Why oh why do I keep attempting to stamp directly on layouts? It never works. I need to accept it.) Off to do that.

This is awesome! Love the clean lines, large pics, that beautiful paper/color scheme and title don't. It all flows together perfectly! Thanks for playing. Please join us again next month! |

I love your take on the challenge. What a great way to use a busy pattern cardstock! I like how you tucked the "tad's" into a space between the photos. |

As close to the sketch as I could get since I could not crop the photos:

Nice job! Love the colors. That title almost doesn't fit! Nice work getting it all on there. That rose, and border are pretty cool! Thanks for playing! |

Glad you got to play, KikiPea ! Great title, and I like how you used the wood grain. Also like that you had both a close up and a setting shot Love your page chendra ! Great photos, and I like your tilted photos. & thanks for your kind comments about my page. Yes I did notch the cs. It just makes the twine process go much more smoothly. And sbartist , I like how you worked that grey black and red colour scheme. Your photo placement really adds interest to your page |
