52 Week Sketch Challenge - Week 15

 For 2026 I am challenging my Inky Friends to create a layout a week. Each week I am sharing a Pinterest inspired sketch to help get those creative juices flowing. Since I am a little behind, it is important to start somewhere. Here is week 15 featured my April Scrapbook Workshop Kit, Made with Sweetness. With this I added the Made with Sweetness Coordinating Cardstock (Colors: Calypso Coral, Crushed Curry, Granny Apple Green, Misty Moonlight, Secret Sea, Strawberry Slush), Cand the Homemade Sweetness Designer Series Paper. I love adding these extra items to give me more variety in my layout. 

Here is the video that shares how the layout was completed.

Layout Challenge - Altering a Scrapbook Workshop

 

I love how easy it is to change up a Stampin' Up! Scrapbook Workshop Kit layout just by using a different paper for the base page.

In this layout, I took a more neutral bark pattern and changed it with a darker more outdoorsy pattern, This pattern showcased the photos I wanted use.

Add a shaped photo to focus more on the what is in the photo.

Use several shapes and coordinating colors to create the perfect cluster.

Saturday Photo Challenge

How many photos do you have on your phone? It is so easy to take them, however we need to organize and print them!!

Saturday is my day to go through the past week's photos. Delete the ones that are blurry or those accidental photos of the ceiling or floor and organize the others. And MOST OF ALL to print those that I want to preserve in a scrapbook layout.

Join me each Saturday for a little photo challenge -- this Saturday start with the clean up by deleting those photos or images no longer need.

Who is up for the challenge?
