10 Creative Scrapbooker | Spring 2023
Inspired by Sketches Each and every month, our monthly sketch designer, Jennifer Edwardson, provides our Sketchy Gallery Facebook group with a NEW 12″×12″ scrapbook layout sketch. Sketches are my GO-TO inspiration when I am starting a layout, especially when I haven’t scrapbooked in a long time, OR I just want to get the layout done so I can tell the story, OR I just want to be inspired. For me, sketches are a PERFECT starting point. Sometimes my final design looks EXACTLY like the sketch, and sometimes it looks nothing at all like it!
you can use them for any size of layouts, including cards. That’s right. A 12″×12″ scrapbook layout sketch could be all the inspiration you need for your next card.
Sketches are also extremely versatile. You can turn them, flip them, cut them in half, only use a section of them, AND
Get your SKETCHY on, my friends!
Whether you are new to using sketches or have been using them for years, our Sketchy Gallery Facebook group is the place to be! Each month, a new sketch and TONS of takes on the sketch are uploaded to inspire us all! Perhaps the best part is seeing how ONE sketch can be interpreted so differently by so many different designers. We wanna see your take!
