Can I tell you how much I love Sketch Thursday? Each week I get to create a layout for my personal albums inspired by one of our design team members. That means that it’s guaranteed I’ll create at least one layout a week. (That was my goal for 2011.) It also means that my layout comes together quickly…
For today’s Take Out Tuesday, I chose to highlight two vertical 4×6 photos. I’ve made it simple for you! Simply grab a few photos from your “to scrapbook” pile, some ES tags and some patterned paper and you’re ready to go. This layout features five different Elle’s Studio products. I think that’s a new record…
Happy Thursday – a short work week here in the US as we celebrated Independence Day on Monday! Are you finding inspiration in our weekly sketches? We hope so!

Welcome to another edition of Take Out Tuesday! Usually we provide instructions to complete a layout but this time around, we’ll be doing something a bit different. Remember that limited edition project kit that sold out in only four days a few weeks back? You know, the one that we won’t ever be reproducing? Yep,…
This week’s sketch is based on this layout by Design Team member Lory Bucaria. I love how Lory used vertical strips to house embellishments, journaling and her title. I also love how she included a bit of color with embellishments at the top of the layout. This sketch is very clean and streamlined but you can make…
We’re excited to announce our next new series on the ES blog – Spotlight Saturday. On the first Saturday of each month, we’ll be shining a spotlight on a crafter that’s put Elle’s Studio product to work on their projects and getting to know them and their project a bit better. We’re so excited to…
Happy Thursday! This week’s sketch is based on this layout by Design Team member Gail Lindner. The ES tags that Gail used to house her journaling and embellishments immediately caught my eye in the latest Inspiration Gallery. This week’s sketch includes space for three photos but remember a sketch is just a jumping point for whatever…
