Stick It Down January 2-Page Sketch Challenge

There's been lots of scrapbooking this weekend! Today I'm sharing with you my take on the January 2-page Sketch Challenge from Stick It Down. This was a fun one to work with!

I've been getting kind of stumped on two-pagers lately because I never have two of the same patterned paper or two of the same solid color paper. But for this one, inspiration struck in the form of Shimelle. I "frankensteined" my backgrounds! 

For page one, I cut the flower paper in half and then cut a piece of cream Bazzill in half, then adhered them together with washi tape to create a full 12x12 background. 

The second page was easier because it was a grid design, so all I had to do was cut take the leftover green paper that went behind my photos on page 1 and add three additional squares. I've got the cream Bazill, the flower pattern, and the opposite side of the flower pattern. So essentially, I took the leftover flower paper and cut it in half again to create two squares. One square got adhered to the right side of the leftover Bazzill, and the other half got adhered to the right side of the leftover green paper. Then I stuck it all together!

Maybe I should have done a process video for this one, but it kind of came together at the last minute. If I'm feeling inspired again and I have enough photos for it, maybe I'll use this sketch for another two-pager and video the whole process. So make sure you're subscribed to my YouTube channel!

Products used include PhotoPlay, Elle's Studio, Bazzill, Heidi Swapp, and Simple Stories.
