July 2024 Sketch of the Month

As summer reaches its peak, many of us are drawn to the tranquil beauty of the ocean and the adventure of cruising. This July, our Scrapbooking Sketch of the Month captures the essence of these experiences with a theme that evokes the serenity of the sea and the excitement of exploring new horizons.

This month’s sketch features a dynamic layout that brings the ocean to life on your scrapbook pages. With ample space for photos and embellishments, this design allows you to showcase your favorite moments from your ocean adventures.

The sketch includes:
-Two large central photos: Perfect for a stunning sunset, a ship on the horizon, or a family portrait on deck.

-Several smaller side photos: Ideal for close-up shots of sea life, on-board activities, or picturesque beach scenes.

- Wave-inspired borders: These wavy lines create a sense of movement, mimicking the gentle roll of the ocean waves.

- Nautical embellishments: Anchors, ship wheels, and florals add a maritime touch to your layout.

Bringing the Sketch to Life

Choose Your Color Palette: Stick to oceanic hues like deep blues, sea greens, and sandy beiges. These colors will tie your page together and enhance the nautical theme.

Select Your Photos: Highlight your favorite cruise moments. Think about the different aspects of your trip – from the ship itself to the exotic destinations you visited, the new friends you made, and the unforgettable experiences you shared.

Add Texture: Use materials that evoke the feeling of the sea, such as textured papers that resemble waves or sand. You can also incorporate elements like twine, netting, or even small shells.

Embellish Thoughtfully: Choose embellishments that complement your photos without overpowering them. A few well-placed accents, like a glittery starfish or a vintage map, can enhance the theme and draw attention to key elements of your layout.


Tips for a Stunning Scrapbook Page

- Balance Your Layout: Ensure that your elements are evenly distributed across the page. This will help create a cohesive and visually appealing design.

- Layer Your Elements: Add depth to your page by layering papers, photos, and embellishments. This technique adds dimension and interest to your layout.

- Tell Your Story: Include journaling to capture the memories and emotions of your trip. Whether it's a brief caption or a longer narrative, your words will bring your photos to life.

As you dive into this month's sketch, let the ocean inspire you. Whether you're reminiscing about a recent cruise or dreaming of future adventures, this layout is the perfect way to preserve those precious memories.

Happy scrapbooking!

May 2024 Sketch of the Month

Our May Sketch of the Month is so versatile. You could use just about any photos with this one. I love how it showcases several large photos, but still leaves lots of empty space. I definitely get into those phases where I want lots of white space on my layouts and this definitely helps with that need.

April 2024 Sketch of the Month


Who helped the Easter Bunny with eggs this year? I know we did! We always dye eggs each year! So there are always a ton of photos! One year we even baked cookies and we won't even talk about all the food for Easter dinner. I evidently do not know how to make a small meal. Regardless of how you celebrated Easter, this sketch is great to get your creative thinking going!

March 2024 Sketch of the Month

This Sketch sets the path for the perfect Spring layout. It gives you the ability to showcase five good size photos in both landscape and vertical orientations.

The design is versatile enough to switch out the large flower for most any icon. Think a large pumpkin or leaf for fall. A large ghost or witch hat for Halloween, a heart for Valentine's Day. A set of bells or holly leaves and berries for Christmas. And even a snowflake for winter. The list goes on and on. 

I love when I can use a sketch more than once and just by changing out the patterned paper and an element or two, I have a completely different look.
