Each month I'll be using the free download sketch that you can find in the Scrapbook Generation online store. (For those of you that don't know: On the third Tuesday of the month we introduce a bunch of new sketches both as individuals and as groups of sketches that you can download for a small price. We also offer a free sketch each month. I'll post all information for the new March downloads tomorrow.) Today you are getting an advanced look at the free sketch since it is the sketch I'm using for Sketch Week.
This month the free download is a two-page sketch.
Scrapbook Generation's Free March Sketch
*available for download on Tuesday, March 19

"Meeting Mickey"
Supplies - Cardstock: Bazzill; Patterned paper: Pinecone Press and Queen & Co.; Alphabet stickers: October Afternoon; Title piece: EK Success; Mickey punch: EK Success; Embroidery floss: DMC
This theme of this layout is very fitting for this week. We just returned yesterday from a trip to Florida and Disney. It was such a fun vacation but I have to admit that I'm exhausted!
I stayed very close to the sketch for this layout.
Variation #1 - I used a longer and larger title than suggested on the sketch.
The title fills in the space of the larger embellishment on the sketch and I was still able to fit a small Mickey embellishment in that space too. Actually, the title piece, aside from the "meeting", and the Mickey is all one piece. Talk about easy!
Variation #2 - Instead of hearts I used small little Mickey ears. I kept the banner very simple since the papers are so bold and the pictures have so much going on in them.

Super excited to get started! Stalking the website for download. LOL
This is a great sketch and an adorable layout to go along with it. I love the banners.
Okay...got the free layout thank you very much. Now, where to begin? Excited!
I think this sketch is great! I love your banner too. I always have a difficult time thinking outside of the box when it comes to banners. I always want to put them on my pages, but can't seem to incorporate certain shapes to things to go with my theme. This is wonderful!
Love this sketch! Can't wait to get the download.
Darling layout!!! Love the flower in your hair!!
