Hi, Debbie here with the Workout Challenge.
This weekend I am using a sketch I have used over and over again. I have a little tag book with photos for inspiration and I have two different layouts which I have printed. I think I found the originals on UK Scrappers but I can no longer find the layouts despite trawling for quite a while.
What I love is the simplicity and how the photo can just speak for itself. For my layout I have used 5 and 4 squares because I wanted my flower punch to fit on the squares.
The embellishements in the middle of the flowers are part of a necklace I cut up (sorry Jayne).
Thanks for stopping by Its a Creative World.

Hello, Eleanor here, keeping up with the challenges. Debbie's sketch actually got me scrapping this week, first time in a long time, and I was also nudged by Dolly's photo border last week. Put the 2 together and this is what I came up with:
We spent a wonderful week with our daughter recently, and I wanted to record not only the places we went to, but also how she is growing into a lovely, caring, gentle and supportive young woman. We miss her very much.
Of course I had to add some crochet leaves, I blame Mandy for this obsession:)
If you join in the challenge, do please let us know, we'll be very pleased to feature your creation.

Hiya Claireliz here with my take on Debbie's sketch,
I flipped Debbie's sketch upside down to make this layout...
I've doodled a border around the edge of my cardstock & used brads to break to border up a bit. I've also hand stitched around the edge of the patterned paper using back stitch. The journaling, chipboard button & paper flourishes are all attached using 3d foam pads.
As Eleanor says please let us see what you've made, we would love to feature your work & we'll also pop by to say hi :)

Dolly here - just had to play along as this is such a great sketch. I have been in anniversary mode for a while now and so this was a perfect sketch to scrap a sort of historical over-view of us over the past 25 years.
I made a digital page but will be printing it out as an 8 x 8 for my Paris anniversary album.
I love that it is a sketch that lends itself to being used in all sorts of ways and it is a fab way of using up a lot of pictures and also the pictures we all have where the quality and composition isn't fabulous and so it might not look great as a huge photo and focal point, but works brilliantly as a smaller picture. I KNOW it is not only me who has lots of those pictures.

Now there's a sketch I could play with! Love these interpretations, and making the embellies like that is so resourceful.
