Welcome Back! For this week's sketches, we are having fun with angles! A grid layout gets a visual boost when you tilt it. And for this week, the "twist" sketch is a totally new design. So much to share, let's get into it!Hello Cocoa Daisy friends, it’s Becki Adams, here to share a layout with you that I created for the Falling for Sketches class using the August kits and the class stamp set. I cannot wait to show you what I created and how it came together in a process video.
I was giddy when I saw this sketch, it had three things that I LOVE: lots of photos, a grid design, and room for lots of journaling. As with most layouts, the first thing I did was look through the products to choose what theme the layout would be. Of course, this helped with my photo selection. After printing my photos, I jumped in and started creating! I had so much fun playing with a couple of the patterned papers in the Spice Market Collection. The patterned papers in this kit are gorgeous! I fell in love with the rainbow mandala paper and the dark blue paper. I wanted these two papers to be the main focus of my project so I used the rainbow paper as my background and the blue paper to frame my photos.
The main area of embellishment on this sketch is toward the bottom right corner of the photo around the title. I stayed close to the sketch, but I did take the embellishment cluster up the left side of the photo as well.
The stamp for this class is awesome!! For a girl who doesn’t like the uncertainty and mess of mixed media splatters, I loved the control of the splatter stamps!! I used soft pink ink to stamp along the left side of the photos and below the title. I love the little splatter of color behind my embellishments. It’s the perfect way to add layers without adding a lot of bulk.
The sketch and fabulous Cocoa Daisy products made this layout come together in minutes. I’m thrilled with how my design turned out! I cannot wait to see what you create with this sketch. Make sure you share your layouts with me. Happy creating!
This sketch was one of my favorites to work with because it pushed me out of my comfort zone! I use grid designs frequently but never at an angle like this. I'm not sure what that says about me, but I had fun going against my linear tendency to put this spread together.  For the larger paper element, I chose one of the pattern papers from the Spice Market Traveler's Notebook Memory-Keeping Kit with several colors to play off the color in my photos.
To start, I used the class stamp set to build a pattern with the half-circle stamp, mimicking the polka dot pattern in the sketch. Creating your own patterns is such a fun way to use stamps and this particular stamp set has all the basic shapes to make pattern building a breeze. I slipped a solid orange paper from the Spice Market Simple Dori in between the stamped pattern paper and the large photo matte. The solid orange paper ensures the two patterns have some breathing room.
For my title, I used two different puffy alpha sets, one from the Spice Market Traveler's Notebook Memory-Keeping Kit and the Doodles & Dashes II Traveler's Notebook Memory-Keeping Kit. I kept the embellishment cluster pretty simple with the rub-ons, a glitter edger as the base for my title, and enamel dots. 
I couldn't have just one embellishment cluster! I made a visual triangle of clusters using rub-ons. chipboard pieces and, of course, enamel dots. I like the use of the visual triangle, especially with the diagonal orientation of this design.
