October Sketch #9: Shaped Page

A simple circle page for you today...

Puppy Love
by Aphra

For Aphra's page, I love that she took the single large photo and made it into a photo collage. Great way to use a large single photo sketch! I like that she took the diagonal lines behind the photo on the sketch and used her own design to mat her photos. Super page Aphra!

Cool New Googles
by Jenn S.


I love that Jenn has taken the photo aspect of the sketch and rotated it and then combined the right 3 photos to make one large photo of her cute little guy! She's even taken the mini star embellies from the sketch and used them within her design as well! Awesome summer page Jenn!

Awaiting Addison
by Nicole

For this stunning page Nicole has used the cluster of circle elements and played them up on her super girlie page about waiting for the birth of her daughter. I love all the different layers and the scalloped edge she has around her large circle element of her page. Gorgeous page Nicole!

The Fridge
by Jana P.


Jana has taken the basic design from the circular sketch and applied directly to her 12x12 page. She has used all 6 places for her fabulous photos and has added a bit of whimsy using all of her ornate chipboard flourishes. To incorporate her journaling, she used a fun shaped tag as part of the sketch. Fabulous page Jana!

Have Your Cake & Eat it Too
by Abbie

For Abbie's page, she has taken the photo area of the sketch and off set it within her circular frame on her 12x12 page. She's also replaced some of the photos from the sketch design to help make room for her fun title. Gorgeous page Abbie!

Abbie has used a few of Creative Chaos' fun labels in her design. She's used one to journal on and the other, an arrow label, she's used to draw your eye to her smaller photos.

Stay

Big Sister
by Cherie

Cherie has taken this circular sketch and made it into a 12x12 page. She shifted her photos and her journaling spot to fit her page but resemble the sketch. She also took the long strip of paper and moved it to the right of her page a bit more. A super cute result Cherie!

My Sweet Potato
by Nicole

Nicole has taken the elements of the sketch and striped them down to only the essentials. She's removed one of the photo spots to create a page with more white space. What a cute little grin her son has! Fabulous page Nicole!

Happy Valentine's and a Sketch!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

"For a shield from the storm, for a friend,
for a love to keep me safe and warm...
I turn to you.
For the strength to be strong, for the will to carry on...
for everything you do, for everything that's true,
I turn to you."
-Christina Aguilera (I Turn to You)

Out Loud
by Kristii


Instead of using this sketch as a circle, Kristii has chosen to create a page using a diet cut shape! I love that she's taken the single center strip from the sketch and used multiple shaped edges to create her central line. So fun and bright this page is by Kristii!
