Hi, everyone! Welcome to Sketch Day here on the Elle’s Studio Blog! It’s Diane here, and today I am sharing a 12 x 12-inch layout I created using this sketch and the beautiful September 2022 kit and add-ons!
As you can see, I stuck pretty close to the original sketch, with only a few changes:
Supplies | September 2022 Kit, Moss Green Puffy Alphabet Stickers, Autumn Chipboard Stickers, Tiny Autumn Hearts and Stars Puffy Stickers, Thankful Paper Stack, Autumn Tabs Stamp
I moved the title to the 3 x 4-inch tag from the September 2022 Kit on the top left, cutting out the leaf and adding vellum stamped with phrases from the Autumn Tabs Stamp. I really like how that gave a fun base to the title!
For the labels on the right side, I cut strips from the striped paper found in the Thankful Paper Stack, cutting them in the shape of banners. I then put labels in coordinating colors on top of the banners and stamped a phrase from the Autumn Tabs Stamp on each one. I liked how it brought some of the black text over to the right side.
I really had a lot of fun with this layout, and I love the bright fall colors in the September 2022 Kit! Sketches are such a great way to get the creative juices flowing—you can stick close to the original design like I did, or change it up however you want. It’s a great starting point! I could have had four photos in the 3 x 4-inch spots, but I thought it would be fun to move that title and bring in some journaling. That’s what is great about sketches, you can make them yours!
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope this inspired you to try your hand at the sketch! If you do, we would love to see it! Make sure to use the hashtag #EllesStudio on Instagram or share it in the Facebook Group! Happy crafting!
