That is very kind of you to say! I keep going back and forth. I'll put it aside for a few weeks and then decide, when my mind is cleared of NSD! LOL Did you ever do that? OMG one time I did the UGLIEST layout, after I took a photo of it I looked at it and tore it apart! I still have the photo of the layout.
Could we have the ugliest layout ever contest? I would be honored to host it and I would gladly give 1000 of my cherry points to anyone who has an uglier layout! But no one would be able to beat it!

LOL! I have only ever done that once... and to this day I dont regret it because it was AWFUL! I dont have a photo of it, but I can still see it in my head and it makes me cringe.Donna_Coughlin wrote: ↑Sun May 08, 2022 10:42 amDonna_Coughlin wrote: ↑Sun May 08, 2022 10:41 amSMMishler wrote: ↑Sun May 08, 2022 9:11 am

I don't have enough paper left over to even make a card, LOL

This was a great 2 part challenge, really got me thinking. For this one, I flipped it on it side, made a layout and flipped the diamonds into squares, using the same materials as Challenge # 1.

So I decided to shed the "can't do" attitude and instead thought about making a smaller card! And I had leftover embellishments in the pack too! And viola!

I loved Sketchy challenge #2 using leftovers to make a card! I got creative since I only had cardstock and a sticker sheet! But I loved how it turned out!
Thanks again for hosting fun challenges!

I didn't have much leftover from my layout, just fussy cut leaves and the background paper slivers. I decided to use those slivers of paper and stitched them to help them look like part of the foliage.

I turned this card sketch into a one page layout. I used the backside of the page that had the flowers on in the first sketch challenge. I then placed my three flower embellishments in a triangle pattern similar to the sketch. This layout is of my Grandmother on her graduation day from high school in 1941.

Here’s my layout using scraps. I did a layout instead of a card for the bonus!

I used scraps from your previous sketch challenge. For a BONUS entry I changed it by leaving out one of the squares.

I really liked this challenge! I used the paper and cards from the same kit to make a clipboard with one of my favorite pictures from the trip! I used black paint around the edges to add texture.
