I have a thing for sketches. I love sketches. You probably are already aware of my "small" problem. I just don't have time to play along with sketch challenges as much as I would like. Life kind of gets in the way! But fortunately for me, timing couldn't be any better, I had a bit of a break in deadlines AND this amazing sketch from Paper Issues is begging to be used!
Here's my layout;
And this is the Paper Issues sketch that inspired it;
You can find other people's interpretations of this awesome sketch as well as the Paper Issues design teams layouts based on this sketch HERE
I recently picked up the Basic Grey collection "Adrift" with some of our Spring Break pictures in mind. And it was sublime for this picture of Mia sprinting to the waves. Her first visit to the beach this past April, she couldn't get there fast enough!
For circles at the top of the sketch, I modified one of Juliana's free 17turtles cut files. In Design Studio, I omitted some of the circles leaving me just the row of three. You can find this amazing free file HERE. Be sure to bookmark this blog - Juliana frequently has great free digital cut files.
I love the washi that is a part of this collection. I really wanted to use bits of it for additional color beside the photo but needed to back it in order to make it stand out.
And that, my friends, is my layout of the day today! Be sure to see what the other talented scrappers out there do with this awesome sketch!
Gorgeous layout!

Wonderful page! I love how you used the die cut and these papers really are perfect with your photo!
I'm sketch addicted, too, and adore this sketch but am not sure when I'll get to play with it. Thanks so much for sharing your take!
