**UPDATED WITH WINNERS**
SKETCH #1 WINNER: #4 - Karyn_Sue
SKETCH #2 WINNER: #5 - Scraplifter
Congrats!

UPDATE 6/2/24:  I'm very sorry if my instructions were not clear.  I provided a link to the May double page post so you can all check out the inspiration FOR YOUR OWN USE, but I meant for the challenge to consist of the two sketches that I chose.  I will accept Sharman's layout (let me know if you want me to count it for sketch #1 or #2 please) but going forward, you MUST use the sketches below for inspiration.  Thanks.

I'm going to post this a day early because I used my sample layouts for a couple May challenges

First of all, I want to thank you all for the wonderful sketches you submitted for my May challenge.  They can be found here:May Double Page Sketches.

I used Random.org to pick the random winner, and the number that came up was #26... VickiR!  Now I'm not going to lie, this was perhaps the most challenging of all sketches for me, but I gave it a shot.  Here is the sketch and my example:



For the second sketch (my pick), I decided to go with the circle and "white space" theme and chose this sketch by oceanbreezes423.



I'll be sending prizes for May to VickiR and oceanbreezes423, and here are the rules for the June challenge:

1. Must be a 2-page layout (paper or digital).
2. Does not have to follow the sketch exactly, but I should be able to see the inspiration. But go ahead, make it your own!
3. All submissions must be added to this thread.
4. This month you can enter twice, but only ONE LAYOUT PER SKETCH.
5. Can be combined with one other challenge that allows it.
6. Due 6/30/2024, but I'll accept anything loaded before I pick winners on July 1.
8. I will choose TWO random winners for a $10 GC to ACOT.  (I think I might pick one winner for each sketch...)
