Size does matter, sometimes! There are times I want to create smaller than a 12×12. Not because itβs easier, because it works different creative muscles. I pulled out my planner from Elizabeth Craft Designs and used the July 2021 Sketchy Challenge as a starting point.When I work in the planner, I am always aware of what will βsplitβ down the center. Sometimes I will let photos or ephemera flow across the center if it doesnβt cut in an awkward place, i.e. splitting a person in half would not be good! Trust your brainβ¦it will know right from wrong! Thanks for checking into my post! If you havenβt joined our Sketchy Challenge on Facebook, we welcome you! ~Kim
I am IN LOVE with how Desiree Saskiw designed this layout. It is brilliant! The cut out photo, the stamped eye, the doodling, the flowers in her hair and that stunning background. And the quote is perfect. Every once in awhile a layout stops you in your tracks…this one did it for me. If you are wondering – those funky stamps are from Ranger – their Dylusions collection. Desiree’s layout was one of MANY projects that were featured in the Summer 2021 issue of Creative Scrapbooker Magazine in an INSPIRED by MEXICO gallery. This may be one of my all time favourite sections in the magazine. So bright, so cheerful, so colourful! All my favourite things.Β Get your copy of the magazine today! Happy Tuesday Friends!
