Kick-Off Party: Sketch Challenge

Welcome to our website kick-off party! We are celebrating our new site all week long - to see the schedule and participate in all the events we have planned for you, please click here. There’s lots to do and some awesome prizes to win! Plus, it all leads up to our next product release, just in time for summer! 

In celebration of our new website we're doing a double sketch this week! We also got a little DT swap going... Let's get right to it :)

Sketch #1 is inspired by Valerie's Easter layout

Kim played along and came up with this beautiful layout:
Kim said: When I saw the sketch I took inspiration from the circles however I have modified it slightly and made my circle elements part of my embellishments instead of being the main design. I utilized Elle's round tags for these elements! lots of fun.

ES supplies: Noted Journaling Circle Tags, Number Tidbits, 2012 4x3 Vintage Calendar Tags


Sketch #2 is inspired by Kim's Feet layout


and Valerie created this fabulous layout with it:
Valerie said: When I first saw the sketch, I thought the large banner shape was an envelope turned upside down - so that's what I used to anchor my photos. Other than that element, I did not stray very far from the original design - which had a great cluster of elements and lots of white space. Two of my favorite things!

ES supplies: Everyday Moments kit, Layered Number Cut Outs
