I love to do layouts with oversized photos, but it is hard. You have to think in a completely different way, but it is totally worth it (or at least I hope so anyway). I loved this photo of my oldest son from a few years ago too much to scale it down any smaller. I have tried to scrap it a couple of times with no success. When I saw the May guest design team challenge sketch at Sketchy Thursdays I knew it was finally time. The sketch had alot of white space around the photo so I knew it would be easy to incorporate a larger photo. My favorite thing about the Sketchy Thursday sketches is that they give just enough design but there is still plenty of opportunity to make the sketch your own.
I made this page with my April Studio Calico kit in about 20 minutes, the pages that just fall together like that are always my faves. Every page I have made with this months kit has been this way :)! thanks for looking and if youre playing along let me know so I show you some love.
