My Creative Sketches: September Sketch

Today I get to share the September sketch from My Creative Sketches. This fun one was designed by Kim Keane.

 

 Here is my take on the sketch...

 

 I have to admit, this sketch freaked.me.out! Circles? What? I don't cut my photos into shapes! When I first saw the sketch I had flashbacks to the way things were done back when I started scrapbooking. Photos cut into various shapes and this was back before digital cameras so some ladies cut up their ORIGINAL PHOTOS, never to be put together again! I swore I would never cut my photos into anything but squares and rectangles, but I gave it some thought, and now that photos are digital I figured, 'what they heck'...the sketch calls for circles, so circles it is!
 

 

I added the buttons randomly around the page to look like drops of water and to fill some of the empty space in the top right corner.
 

 

 I printed the largest photo as an 8x10 and used my Cricut to cut a circle large enough. For the smaller photos my Spellbinders did the trick.
