Let's Get Sketchy - August Week 1

Since I'm in the spotlight this month at Let's Get Sketchy I didn't want to waste anytime making my layout from the week one sketch.




I love working with Black and White but usually add Red as my splash of color


when using B&W, but since there was a little bit of yellow in the pictures that


I used I decided for this layout to mat all my B&W strips in yellow.


I'm really happy I did it this way because I really think it is so cheery looking.

    Thank you so much everyone. I really love working with the sketches each week at LGS and it was quite the thrill and honor when I was chosen to be spotlighted.
    Yellow is one of my favoritie colors and I really thought that it made all the black pop.
