Using the Sketch each week...

Good morning!
We can not tell you how much we enjoy all the awesome cards created
 each week, the galleries are so fun and inspiring!

There has been a great question asked and so I will  try to clarify.

The sketch each week is “inspired by” the photo inspiration (sometimes loosely inspired ).

So, you can use the sketch alone for your inspiration that week, it does NOT have to be inspired by anything else in the photo inspiration.

For example:  The week we had fun shoes.

You may have looked at the prompt and decided you didn’t have shoes or like those colors, and that’s OK!  We don’t always have the supplies but we don’t want that to stop you from using the sketch and sharing your awesome ideas with us!

The sketch is so you can share any and all ideas with us based on the “layout” of the photo prompt.

Below is a card from Erin T from our Colorful Sneaks gallery that uses the “sketch” that week as inspiration with cute tent stamps, this is perfect!

We can't wait to see what you create each week, happy creating.
