Sketch Puzzle for August 29th 2010

Today’s single photo sketch puzzle was graciously provided by Michelle Galloway. Using a single photo sketch always gives you the ability to use your photos in either profile or landscpe layout and often leaves room to add another image should you find the need.

This layout uses an accent color to background and frame both the image and the title. There is ample room for unique shapes which could be utilized for journalling areas. Add a few embellishments under the frame, at the top and along the sides to enhance the balance and you have a great layout.

Sketch Puzzle for August 8th, 2010

Victoria is from the WeScrap Inspiration team and made this sketch for Tara recently. It looks like Tara had some fun using this sketch for her “Feeling Sexy” layout and created a really fun scrapbook page. To see Tara’s great use of this sketch just solve the puzzle and hop on over to WeScrap.com to find it.

Here are some hints to help you to solve this weeks puzzle. A wide strip separates the page into thirds and could be filled with an interesting pattern that can compliment the color you choose for your background card stock. Add some edging to the bottom of the stripe to draw your attention to the 3 photo focal point. An arch adds interest and balance to the page above the photo area and an area for journalling in available below the arch and the photo area. The title area completes the page balance opposite from the arch.

Enjoy!

A nice, clean and simple sketch contribution from Sara Nolan.

Sara’a sketch features two photos nestled together over a background with some simple shapes. A large journaling area flanks the photos area. The title can be placed as shown or use your own creativity and enlarge it above the entire focal point.

Enjoy!

Sketch Puzzle for July 25, 2010

This sketch was designed by Tara Thynner and featured on the WeScrap site earlier this month. The puzzle’s focal point is a single large image or photo area matted with striping. The title area overlaps some of the design to give the sketch an extra pop. There is plenty of room to add extensive journalling to add your personal touch, writing stlye and stories. And there is even room for extra embellishments if desired.

Enjoy this week’s puzzle!

This puzzle has awesome details. It is presented by Ally Cope. Thanks, Ally for the contribution and your wonderful work over at the WeScrap site.

The sketch is designed to highlight two photos. The photos are offset from what could be an eye catching accent color. Embellishments and designs are randomly placed above, on and to the side of the images or photos as well as strategically placed along the side of the color accent. A generous journalling area is available near the centered title area.
