Pencil Lines Sketches 258 & 257

I'm a little behind on posting my Pencil Lines pages. I do love working with sketches, but I'll admit that I'm not always crazy about them or even inspired by them. You want to know something strange though... those pages that I struggle with turn out to be some of my favorites. This was most definitely the case with sketch 258. I struggled to find a vision of where I would take this page. Here's the sketch inspired by fellow Pencil Lines Design Team member Jennifer Mattot:

For my page... I really struggled to find a starting point. It wasn't until I flipped the sketch that my vision came... check out my finished page:

I just love how the Autumn page turned out! For this page, I used Autumn Flea Market Vol 2 by Shabby Miss Jenn with Snipettes: Fall by Sahlin Studio. Stitches by Anne Delong and the font is Grown Up Girl by Darcy Baldwin.

Up next, Sketch 257 was one of those that pretty much I had a vision of before I began the layout. I love the paper blocking style... especially when I can use a lot of pattern papers. Here's the sketch inspired by fellow Pencil Lines Design Team member Jennnifer Chapin:

For this page, I used Bountiful Blessings by Melissa Bennett with Snipettes: The Perfect Pumpkin by Sahlin Studio and the font is Grown Up Girl by Darcy Baldwin.

Well, that's it for now... be sure to stop by again soon!
