My First Sketch Interpretation!

Last week we went on a roadtrip to Nebraska.  I have been playing more and more with sketches and decided to try my hand at creating some!  If you look at the tabs underneath the title of my blog you can find all that I have created so far there!  Last night I actually used a couple of them and created layouts.  Here's my very first one!  I created this sketch with patterned paper in mind....I often come across collections that I adore the paper on and want to include as much of it as I can!  This sketch is perfect for that.

The fun thing about sketches is that they give you a jumping off point...but if you start and then stray that is okay.  Even I don't follow my own sketch exactly!

One of my goals for this year is to do several layouts about myself, just myself.  I do lots on family and obviously lots on kids.  But there are some things about me that will be fun to remember down the road.  Today's layout features journaling about some of my dreams that came true in the scrapbooking industry this year!  

I absolutely love the line "We R Family" by Lilybee Design.  It incorporates some of my favorite colors and has fabulous patterns.  My squares for this layout are 1 3/4" and with that they didn't fill the whole page, so I trimmed it down and matted it on a turquoise cardstock.

Supplies Used:
Patterned Paper Lilybee Design
Wood: Studio Calico
Stickers: Bella Blvd, Cosmo Cricket
Washi Tape: My Mind's Eye
Stapler: Tim Holtz
