Here's another one by Becky Higgins:

So, as usual, I'm going to encourage you to submit your layouts this month for publication!! Here are the details from Creating Keepsakes:

Use this sketch and, using it as a guide, create a well-executed, memorable layout to submit to CK. Please note: This sketch is for our August 2008 issue. You aren’t required to use seasonal pictures, but they are a plus.

Use solid-colored cardstock, patterned paper or textured paper—whatever works best for your layout. Choose the page size (8 1/2" x 11" or 12" x 12") you prefer. You can scrapbook black-and-white or color photos—it doesn't matter.

NEW!: We're now publishing single pages inspired by one side of the sketch as well. Let's see what you can do!

August 2008 Instructions: This layout has an even grid of 15 spaces. These could all be pictures, or little journaling blocks, or places for ephemera, or a little bit of everything. This super versatile sketch allows you to keep it really simple or get creative. Have fun with it! Make it work with your style. Due February 29, 2008

When your layout is complete, e-mail an electronic version to editorial@creatingkeepsakes.com. Be sure to include "Becky's Sketch" in your subject line. Note: Attached files MUST be less than 300K. Include a supplies list for the layout as well.

"This sketch is for our August 2008 issue. You aren’t required to use seasonal pictures, but they are a plus."

Could someone add a guide to the US seasons and what other things are going on for those of us who aren't in the US. A guide for the year would be cool - we can probably guess Dec is Xmas ;)

Neat sketch and thanks for posting the challenges Meg.

August is usually hot, hot summer around here, school starts in late August or early September.

Thanks for this request, I'll try to remember to add this info on future postings!

Making the grid is not so bad as finding so many decent, related photos but looking forward to trying. Thanks for the season guide, too, Meg.

Gee, I hope this is in the right gallery - :help: the previous upload says Feb 5 and where have the portraits gone...
Here is the link to it (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=241480) anyway!
Felt so weird uploading a LO after doing so many self-portraits. LOL

Well, Donut, after seeing your delightfully clear Feb 2-page LO, I just had to redo mine. I reread the thread and noticed the sketch asked for 4x3 not the 3x2 which I had used. Kept the same photos and text, etc. This time I have uploaded as two separate pages:

Secret Beach p2 (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=243614)

This is the original version (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=241480)
