Today’s sketch is by sketchy Thursdays (I found it on Pinterest)  My take on it...  And your title twist for the bonus points is to EITHER use a preprinted item (journaling card, tag, project life card, title, etc) or hang your title (I used twine and a brad but you can use whatever method works for you!) |

Linda I like how you substituted the second photo with the journaling. And the little fan is very subtle but very effective to remind us of the theme of your album.

So pretty, Dictionary! What a sweet photo! Great idea to tip the whole design on its side to accommodate the different orientation. Love the pink plaid and the lacy border strip. |

I flipped the sketch so I could get my photo onto the other side because the lantern paper I wanted to use only had lanterns on the right side and they got all covered up by the photo, lol! The title got moved down some but I was able to use a tag for the twist! So here's my take on the sketch using this kit Edited to add that the chinese characters are Traditional Chinese in Mandarin for New Year Greeting |

You girls are quick! Great sketch KelleeM! I love your hanging title and she's such a cutie. Linda That's one of my favourite navy pp's. I really like the textured alpha (map print?) with these photos. Dictionary I love this design turned sideways and the "this happy life" tag is so perfect with that photo. ABCreations beautiful colour combo, I really love the subtle hanging lantern pattern and the twisted ribbons are lovely. |

I have plans for this one today. ABCreations I love the pink and yellow, the lanterns, the ribbon border, and how you subbed out the second photo for a flower. |

You made me pull my Autumn papers out! I saw the sketch and immediately thought of this photo I wanted to use for the cover page of my fall album. And when I saw others using flowers as their 2nd photo, I knew I had to use this photo and do a leaf cluster.  Fall cover page 2019 by Gramma Dee, on Flickr POINTS: one page created & shared (2), #1 Sketchtember page (1) twist (1) & bonus (5), #3 changing seasons (1), #4 outdoors (1), #20 border strip (1), #47 burlap ribbon (1), #53 rectangular photo (1), #54 square page (1), #57 colours (1), #64 5x7 pic (1), #77 triangular banner pieces (1), #95 someone I love (1). Total: 19 The Autumn bin I pulled out had some really old stuff in it, and I managed to use my new title letter dies I bought on Friday within sleepingbooty 's 72 hour window! |

The paper and embellishments match perfectly! ABCreations , did you stitch the outline around the photo? It's the perfect touch. grammadee, love the leaf cluster! I need to learn how to do those. |

Everyone is so quick! Loving all this inspiration! Here is my layout for this sketch. I used the little flag with Happy Birthday on it as my title to meet the twist. (the glare is obscuring it.)  |

 Okay, my photo skills are abysmal! This is a 12x12, even though it looks rectangular. Super simple layout of those two photos of my sister and her husband that I lost for a while. Title you can't read, but it says "Just being us is fun." Used ribbon and a floral trim and a flower. Hand written journaling. Used the twist. Total of 21 points. |
