Sketches Revisited: Sketch 123

This sketch feature is about bringing back some of our "oldies-but-definitely-goodies" sketches.  The Got Sketch? team will be doing this periodically to show you a new approach to some old sketch favorites.  I'm excited to share these again!
Sketch 123
Sketch designed by Valerie Salmon

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::


Layout by Chrissy Greenman

SOURCES: Patterned Paper and Embellishments: Jillibean Soup.  Hearts and Journal Tags; Bella Blvd.  Twine: MME.  Pen: Zig


Designer Notes:  This has been one of my favorite "go-to" double page sketch!  I love how versatile it is.  You could change the large photo on the left page and fit four smaller photos or include two vertical photos as I did on my layout.  On the right side, I also changed the dimensions of the top 3 X 3 layout so I could include a 3 x 5 picture!  You could change the smaller 2 x 2 pictures to include a 2 x 4, etc.  The possibilities are endless.

Twelve Days of Christmas: Day 11


Yay, a 2-page example from Chrissy, based on a 2-page sketch!
Project 2 of 2.
Sketch 123

Chrissy's Tips:  Who doesn't love 2 page layouts and banners?!  I loved sketch 123 from the moment I saw it and knew it would be perfect for my "cookie making" pictures.  What I love about the placement of the banner on this sketch is that it leaves you enough room to create a large banner title or a small banner title.  I needed a large banner title since I wanted to spell out "cookies" and I love how it didn't take over the layout.  (see image #2)  Plus, it's easy to create your own banners.  I cut 1x2 rectangles from patterned paper and then stacked them on top of each other.  I cut a triangle at the bottom of each to create my banner.  Last, I placed them on white cardstock to make them stand out and cut around the red patterned paper.  Also, to add dimension to my page I added pop dots under the tree and present embellishments.  (see images #1 and #3)

Sketch 76

Now on to our reveal for Sketch 76. This is a great sketch that includes LOTS of photos. A fun way to scrap a big event or those times when you kept your camera on continuous mode and just kept snapping away. Thank you to our contributors - they did a fabulous job as usual!
