This month's scrapbooking sketch uses five photographs or four photos and a journaling block.
There are no alternate directions to turn this one, but you could set the photos off-center for a change. Or use a large center photo and four smaller satellite photos.
Varying the size of the photos will create a different impression also. Try using the bottom right on one layout and the top left on the adjoining page for a double page spread.
We have a couple of sample layouts, but as some of you have said you prefer to get the sketch on its own we will post one tomorrow to give you time to let your creative juices flow.
A scrapbooking sketch is a springboard to help you make layouts faster.
Here is this month's scrapbooking sketch. As you can see it's for one large photograph and four smaller ones, and uses two or more background papers - if that's how you want to use it.

And to save you the bother of the contortions, here are the alternatives.

We have a sample layout with this sketch, an added challenge, journaling tips and some wonderful product ideas.
Our scrapbooking sketch went a bit wild this month! lol!
Firstly we were bored with the monotony of a gray scale. Then, having decided to use multiple squares the layout needed softening, so we added the curved arrows. And finally we thought to add some fun by using the arrows to make the curvy flow through the page.
Hmm … let's see what we can make of it. Read on for ideas and a sample layout.
Are you looking for a scrapbooking sketch to show off that very special photo?
Then try our new template. It has places for a large photo and 2 small ones. The two positions for words can be used as title and sub title, or you could use the either one for a little information to go with the photo.

On this occasion several Christmas scrapbook layouts were made based on a digital layout and after showing the finished layouts here we decided to make the sketch too.
