I hope you enjoyed our last 2 tutorials, today we are looking into scrapbooking sketch inspiration. I will be sharing a few sketches I have created and some scrapbook pages and cards created from the sketch and then some links to great sketch inspiration sites/blogs.
Sketch #1
The photo area can be 1 6x4 photo or several smaller ones. The block on the left hand side can be made up of a strip of patterned paper, several strips of co-ordinating papers or ribbons. Underneath the title there is space for journaling should you wish to include some. And the circle on the corner of the photo is a cluster or embellishments/flowers/buttons etc.

Sketch #2
I love the versatility of this sketch, you can fit up to 9 photos on it should you wish (as in layout example 3) or include 6 photos and use the bottom (or top) section for your title and journaling (as in examples 1 and 2). In my layout examples my coloured squares measure 3" and my photos approx 2", but you could make each square a 3" photo if you do not wish to include a photo mat. You could also use some of the squares for journaling instead of photos. I love to embellish my layouts quite a lot but you could also make a much simplier and clean looking layout by using minimal embellishments. The list of options with this sketch is almost endless!

Sketch #3
Layout Example 1
In my layout example I have merged the journaling and title together but you could have a seperate journaling and title block like the sketch shows.

Check back at the weekend of a follow up post where we will be sharing another 3 sketches and inspiration.
