March 2026 - Challenge #3 - Let's Get Sketchy

Wow!  Where is this month going?  It's time for our third challenge of the month and that is always going to be a sketch!  First, let me remind you of this month's Inspiration Kit:

Cocoa Daisy February 2026 - Inklings

In March, June, and October, there's a YouTube Hop called 30 Days of Sketches With Christy's Beautiful Life.  She provides us with sketches for the whole month-thirty days worth!  This is an amazing hop and a great community.  I am using this month's Day 22 sketch, created by Stacy Doner Tewari: 

Our Guest Designer, Neyla, and the Master Forgers have some examples for you! 

 

Guest Designer Neyla said that she used washi folded over and stapled instead of ribbon or twine for the tags holes.  This was a tip she got from another creator!  What a great way to use some washi!

 

  

MF Julene

 I used one of my counterfeit papers and an olive-green cardstock. This was an AZTEC ceremony I saw in Mexico.

MF Ryann had a lot of fun putting together this really simple layout! These are photos of the table decor from her wedding reception (A Masquerade Ball). The tie-dye watercolor paper gives the layout a little extra depth and motion without adding a lot of extra thickness to the layout. 

MF Amanda

Amanda used her forgery paper for the background for the sketch, and used a metal di to cut two larger tags, that she made into flips to add additional pictures to the layout. Extra splatters to add some sparkle and a little bit of journaling on labels, with a couple embellishments makes this a quick and simple layout to put together!
 

A look at the tags flipped open! 

You can see her process come together on Amanda's YouTube Channel.
