Sketch-a-holic!

I've been enjoying all the amazing sketch blogs that are out there- don't get me wrong, i love being creative and coming up with new and inventive layouts. But sometimes, isn't it nice to NOT "reinvent the wheel"?? Letting someone elses' creativity jump-start mine can sometimes be just the thing I need to get over that scrapper's block I might have. I have two fav spots lately for sketching inspiration. The first is Nuts About Sketches which I am happy to say I serve as a member of the "sketch team" there! She posts a new sketch every Monday, along with layouts created by myself and the 5other talented sketch team members. The second is 52 Sketches 52 Weeks. Here they have a weekly sketch posted and a lovely gallery where you can participate and post your own layout based on the weekly sketch. Stop by and visit sometime, and perhaps gain a bit of inspiration yourself!

Here's this week's sketch from Nuts About Sketches...and my interpretation! You can see that I flipped my layout to accomodate my vertical photos.
