June 2026 - Challenge #3 - Let's Get Sketchy!

 It is the third challenge of the month! This is always our sketch challenge.

Before we dive in, here is a reminder peek at our kit.

On to our sketch...
I decided on this one because it looks like an excellent place for us to use up a lot of those "last bits" of our packages of embellishments! So let's see how the team interpreted their layouts.

To add a touch more fun - I also want to encourage you to add Foam Squares (tape, dots, whatever) to this layout!  Here's the sketch from Hip Kit Club!

Here is how the team took the sketch and made it their own:

Master Forger Vikki

I love, love, love this sketch!  This was a great way to use a bunch of different patterned papers.  I turned one of the photos on the horizontal to make it work for the photos I wanted to document. I added foam squares to the butterflies and the scissors in the title.  This is definitely a sketch I will use again.

Master Forger Laurie

I used the sketch as the foundation for my layout by keeping the bold diagonal design that divides the background into four sections and placing my two photos in the center as the focal point. Instead of the large floral cluster shown in the sketch, I created balanced embellishment clusters with oversized flowers, leaves and a colorful rainbow to frame the photos. I also adapted the title placement by tucking it into the lower right embellishment cluster, adding dimension and visual interest while staying true to the overall flow and composition of the original sketch. 

Master Forger Ryann

used several circle patterns to continue the idea of Core Memories, which is the ride she was on at Disneyland California in these photos.  She pulled in a lot of the ends and packages of embellishments for the left side of the layout - layering a doily and stickers first, then building layers onto those and ending with enamel dots, bling, chipboard elements, and acrylic flowers for depth.  She used faux stitching to mimic the sketch by drawing with a pen.

Only one challenge left for the month! The easiest one to be creative with, right???
