Just one Sketch

So like many of you I signed up for Miss Smiths Class "Just One Sketch". I thought it would be great inspiration in what is normally a quiet month.  Well January has not been as quiet as I would have liked and I have stuggled to find anytime to find time play.

But last weekend I made a start.  Firstly I looked through my layouts to find any comman thread and discovered that I seem to have a style developing!  In no particluar order my pages usually include;
  • one photo - usually 6x4
  • plain cardstock base
  • layers of PP underneath my photo.
  • clusters of embleishments around the corners of the photo
  • use of ribbons/buttons to add texture
  • title horizontally above photo.
 So based on my findings, I drew my own sketch.  When I scrap I use sketches alot as they get me going but I've never considered drawing my own before.  


And heres the resulting page.



As you can seen I followed the sketch in the main.

Next on the agenda is taking the sketch for a spin!

That's a brilliant start! I know, I haven't got near working on my sketch either - I keep telling myself that at least I donated to the Guides and that's a good thing :)
