Scrapbook Generation Blog Hop


Welcome to the SG Blog Hop for December, if this is your first stop, you might like to start at the Scrapbook Generation blog and then hop through each link.

Hello everyone!  I can't believe it's already time for the blog hop again!  Today I am sharing 2 layouts that I did using the Day1 and Day2 layouts from the February 2013 Super Sketch Club kit.  You can find these layouts on the Scrapbook Generation website.

For the Day 1 layout, I used the "Simply Perfect" layout option by Debbie Sanders featuring (4) 6x4 photos in the layout.  I followed this one fairly close but used (4) 4x3 photos to work better on the 8.5x11 pages.  I also added a 4x6 in place of having a little more open space on the page.   The  titles, flower embellishments, and journaling were shifted to accommodate my picture selection.


 
 
For the Day 2 layout, I used "The Best Day Ever" layout option by Allison Davis.  I followed the general layout for the paper portion, but decided to create an extra flag and spread the four between two pages to accommodate my picture selections, which ended up being nothing like the layout!  Each side has a focal 4x6 photo with 6 2x2 photos accompanying the larger photo.  This makes 14 pictures on an 8.5x11  double page layout! 



You can find the SG sketches in their books and as downloads in the SG store, and there is a free one every month in case you wanted to try it out.

Next on the hop is Melissa - http://www.scrappyjedi.com/.  Leave a comment on each blog and one lucky commenter will receive a free sketch bundle of their choice from the store. The winner will be draw on December 9th, so you have one week to leave a comment.
