Once again we have a publishable sketch from Becky Higgins!! It's due May 2nd, so you have a little less than a month to work on it. It uses LOTS of photos so find a fall event you went crazy at and get to work!

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/data/5062/Oct_sketch.jpg

Submission details from CK:

1. Using the sketch as a guide, create a well-executed, memorable layout to submit to CK. Please note: This sketch is for our October 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!


2. Special Instructions

October 2008 Instructions: Forget about the background on this layout. There is none. For this design, it’s all about the photos! But don’t feel limited. The blocks don’t have to all be photographs. You can create other design elements in place of a picture or two or three. Use your imagination. And take advantage of all that space on the right edge for journaling. There is plenty of it, so whether you use your handwriting or typed text, write a lot. Due May 2, 2008.

3. 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.

Here's my 2 pager! Feeding the Geese At Grandma's (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=254266)

It's REALLY hard for me to use so many photos!! I stuck pretty closely to the sketch, but used a couple of the photo spots to enlarge some photos and add the title and date stamp.

I can't wait to see how you interpret this sketch!

Stuck to the sketch the way it was, just resized the photos.
I had great subjects to work with.

Here's mine, I rotated the second page to have my journaling at the top so that I could use the photo of the Zoo's entry sign.
I've had these photos and heaps more of the same day since December but couldnt decide what to do with them...thanks Meg! :)

Hope you enjoy my Autumn Days 2 page LO (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=255586). :cool: For once I am in the right season for collecting fresh photos!

It is the complete opposite to my BOY (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=254020&ppuser=18693) LO which I created for Sharon's Easy 123 challenge.

I have created a template for nine-photo 12x12s (http://www.4shared.com/file/44577740/3fe60e07/spaces_9_w_equal_borders_to_fit_22400x.html) which I am sure will come in useful again. It is the grey frame which overlays the photos making them more neatly manageable. Please feel welcome to download if it is of any use to you; easily cut equal squares 'holes' from any paper.

Thought I'd try this! Here's my contribution :)
My LO is a pretty literal interpretation of the sketch.

I thought I'd try my hand at this challenge.... I had so many great shots from this vacation.

I'm not very comfortable journalling, so I was surprised at how much I was able to write :)

Thanks for looking

A month late but here's my take on this sketch, I put it in my own gallery since it's so late.
