Last challenge for me. Again, I went to GrandDiva's Creative Corner. The TWIST is to use something with STRIPES or CHEVRONS.  Here is my take on the sketch:  Memories while you wait by Gramma Dee, on Flickr Have fun! |

Gorgeous grammadee! I'll admit, my heart did sink a bit because this is a sketch that deserves 2 pages and a good chunk of time...but I'll adapt  Your choice of paper layers is lovely, and your chevrons rock! |

Great layout and sketch! I’ve just taken screenshots of the last 7 sketches and hope to do a few today, unless life gets in the way which I suspect it may.

I am done!  50 bonus points for me thank you very much! Tomorrow is my sketch so I've done that one already so all sketches and twists have been achieved! I am a happy bunny. I struggled today, it is very sunny and this was my desk... super brightness!  Here's my LO and yes, it is all fluted around the edges! Cause of the heat and sunshine, it has bucked, I couldn't be bothered to wait for it to flatten out again before I photographed lol! I think I've got stripes covered I just did the left hand side. How cool is the saying on the card, I laughed when I saw that!  I made 30 for this one! 1 for a LO, 1 for a share, 5 for sketch + twist, #3, #4, #7, #9, #12 + BONUS, #15, #17, #21, #22, #31, #32, #33, #35, #38 (it was a 6x8 paper pad), #42, #44, #47 (there's more than 25 embellishments), #49 and Sept Stash Challenge - pre-made title. |

I spent yesterday messing about in Photoshop with a new string action - this is my second attempt so not too bad. I made everything else on the tag too, even drew the coffee cup from scratch. Then I had to go and lie down for 3 hours  kiwigirl I have that problem at my craft desk; this time of year until the clocks go back the sun, when it's out, is so strong. Lovely too, though  I may have to make a version of that quote, it's great. I love all your colours as usual, especially against the black background. stinkerbelle It's a great page, the busyness to me captures curly hair, sometimes uncontrollable. I think it's lovely, all fussy and feminine - in a good way Chinagirl828 fantastic title! That drew me in immediately and I enjoyed the story - until the fire ants. Ordinary ants are enough to make my skin crawl! That cloud paper is perfect for the idea of sleep - super two page spread |

I've gotten this one done now - which completes my 30 sketches - but the nuvos need to dry before I scan the layout - so I'll share later

ok - my nuvos are dry so here's my final sketch layout! I had to modify it a bit but I honestly started with the sketch. (and I'm claiming the striped twist)   |

I think you can see how this one started (my idea was a bit long title down the right side) but then I wanted to include all 3 photos so I re-worked that part. Kept the circles and the 3 "mattes" behind the photos but overlapped them. I love this layout, so thanks grammadee!!!  layout fun and games by kirstendrew, on Flickr |

Linda, I love those photos. And the subtle little hits of blue & grey in the stripes. I think I left love for the others in the Gallery.

I swear I started with the sketch but had to modify it to fit 8.5x11 and less photos (because my photos weren't croppable) and well...it went a bit off the rails after that.   |

I love this, Linda. Sometimes all you need is starting point, and you should always let it lead you were it will. Then you get gorgeous layouts like the one above. The colors and the title font are awesome. |

Your choice of paper layers is lovely, and your chevrons rock!
