The design team is back bringing you multiple takes on the same sketch. Our newest sketch is designed by Charity Hassel.

This sketch provides lots of options when it comes to pictures and journaling placement.

Designed by Cahrity Hassel. Supplies: Bazzill Cardstock; Chatterbox Sunroom Patterned paper; Doodlebug Inc, Artic Frog and Christina Cole
In "Naturally Sweet" Charity has stayed true to the sketch. She notes: I used this sketch to show off three wonderful pictures of my son. I turned the photos black and white. I also cropped the two side pictures to add more drama. The right side of his face is shown for the right picture and the left side of his face is the focus of the left picture. My pictures were formatted in a computer program so that I could space them correctly and measure the pictures to match. The set of three pictures was printed directly onto white cardstock for more texture and because I wanted to keep the pictures exactly how I had arranged them on the computer. Next I cut strips of patterned paper and placed them above and below the set of pictures being careful to balance the colors and the weight of the designs. I purposely placed the white stickers over the picture to provide more contrast. I also used white for the word sugar because sugar is white. The bottom embellishment was made by cutting a large green circle from Bazill carstock then placing the Christina Cole sticker on top. I liked the fact that the black and white sticker complimented the black and white pictures. I simply eyed the page and placed letter stickers around the green circle for “naturally sweet”.

Designed by Sassette. Supplies: Bazzill Cardstock; My Mind's Eye Kaleidoscope "Make a Wish" paper; acrylic clips--dollar store find; Title lettering--Sizzix Shadow Box; Ink--Bazzink(monochromatic greens)
In "RUGRATS" Sassette has turned the sketch on it's side, which works wonderfully for her 12x12 format.

Designed by Kim Demmon. Supplies: Kraft paper cardstock; White MM acrylic paint; Circle stamp; Ranger distressing ink; Diecuts with a View Retro Patterned paper; Lil Davis bonny mead foam stamps; Cloud 9 designs-The Wood Stone collection Cat stickers.
Kim has also turned the sketch it's side and has made a few adjustments to be able to include another picture. This is a perfect example of adopting a sketch and making it your own.

Designed by Barbara Snyder. Supplies: POTH August Heart Snips kit and Arial Rounded font.
Barbara has used the sketch to complete an All About Me layout for the Pages of my Life Challenge "Pet Peeves". You may notice her version does not contain any pictures, I think this shows that they aren't always mandatory when you have something to say. She notes: I chose a black background to further highlight the bright colors of the paper and tags, and applied a paper damage brush to it to continue the theme of torn and crumpled elements.

Designed by Christina. Supplies: Fur Baby Kit and Xtras by Christina Blomberg. Fonts: Arial Black(Monogram), Beach Type(Title), Typewritter(date) and Jeana(journaling)
Christina's digital version is another that is very similar to the sketch and she has managed to used the sketch to complete a layout with this months theme in mind. She notes: Instead of using extra patterned papers, I "wrapped" ribbons around the mat on both sides of the picture. The "monogram" in the title was made by "die cutting" a letter from another patterned paper in the Fur Baby Kit. A different font and the bevel/emboss feature helped to create the "engraved" names in the monogram.

Designed by Tiffany Bryant-Jackson. Supplies: Bazzill Cardstock; American Craft Stickers; Urban Lily Patterned paper; Making Memories Petite Sinage; 7 Gypsies rub-ons
In "Spoiled" I wanted to use the sketch to highlite a large picture I had of my sons. To do this, I moved things up a bit and then added my title on the side.

Designed by Christine Ranson. Supples: Bazzill Cardstock; ProvoCraft Patterned Paper; Self made Paper peicing inspired by 2003 Hot off the Press book.
Christine's "What I learned" is another large scale version of the sketch. She has chosen to use the sides for journaling which has also allowed her to include a second photo in the center spot.
