Grade 4- Twisted Sketches

It's new sketch time at Twisted Sketches, this week we have a great 1-photo sketch to play with (my favorite), along with the twist of BUTTONS (another favorite!). You'll have to stop over to Twisted Sketches to see Anam's fabulous sketch, but here's my take on it:


My fun & frugal trick for this layout? I LOVE to use those jumbo diecuts, but sometimes they are pricey, and I am CHEAP!! Over the years I have purchased a variety of the jumbo diecuts in various shapes, and before putting them to use on the layout, I trace them onto a sheet of chipboard and save as a template. Now I have templates off all my favorite jumbo diecut shapes to trace onto pattern papers anytime, as I did here on this LO!  Once I had my shape cut, I inked around the outside edge, andthen doodled a scallop around the inside edge, just to highlight the shape a bit more.

Stop on over to Twisted Sketches to see the sketch, and a bunch more great takes on it from the rest of the DT! =) T
