Sunday Sketch | Maggie Massey
This week, our layout sketch is an 8.5x11 layout with a fun strips of paper and a center photo. Our card sketch features paper layers and a round accent and our Project Life sketch uses a 6x8 page with one 4x6 photo and two 3x4 journaling cards. Get creative and be sure to share your projects here with us! We can't wait to see what you create! Creative Team member, Maggie Massey, is joining us this week and sharing her take on the card sketch! Be sure to follow Maggie here at SC to see more of her work and keep up with her.
Our 8.5x11 layout sketch comes from Tracy Armstrong's A Story About This Photograph layout:
Our card sketch comes from Carissa Wiley's The One with the Globe card:
Our Project Life sketch comes from Geralyn Sy's Project Life® spread:
I am a super huge fan of Tracy's work and I immediately fell in love with her layout. I happened to have my Carolina Moon kits out on my workspace and when I saw the striped Studio Calico patterned paper I thought it would be a great way to reflect Tracy's lined pattern.
When I'm using a sketch as the basis for a layout, I sometimes use just the elements in the sketch to help jumpstart my work. My stripes don't look anything like the sketch's, but they were inspired by the original layout.
The photo I chose was one I took last summer and have been wanting to scrap for a while. I chose some of the High Rise patterned paper to go along with my striped paper and I covered a good part of both patterns with some vellum to tone down the busy-ness of the background.
After I had my background laid out I stuck pretty close to Tracy's design. I used my single photo and added a large scripted title underneath...a few other simple embellishments and done!

When I saw the card sketch I thought it an excellent opportunity to use the blackboard tag from the Frank add on and the heart circles that have been hanging around since cirque.
here is my take on the card sketch.
