I have a quick question since I've never done one of these before. Do the photos we use have to be the dimensions of the ones on the sketch, or is this more of a lift-type project where we use the sketch as a guide? Sorry...still learning from this board!

Those are awesome sketch choices ...you're right, it will be hard to choose!

This looks like great fun. I just bought some PPs from my favorite company, Reminisce, that I've been looking for ideas on how to use. I'm going to have to try this contest.

Use the sketch as a guide!

The sketches are just a guideline....you just use them as a reference....you can follow them exactly, or flip them, change them up....you can do pretty much anything.

I love PageMaps! I always tell my friends they are like recipe cards for scrapbooking. They are a great place to start, sometimes you add more spice, sometimes less.
I used this sketch...

...to create this page...

my page - the background papers are basic grey - quilted, inked, and hand-stitched

This is probably a dumb question, but since all the photos are smaller than 5x7 . . is it okay to use most of the sketch, but use a larger photo?

Sus79 · Fri Mar 05, 2010 7:56 pm

Awesome pages ladies

CHOOSE SCHMOOZE!

Do them all and then pick which one you think you did the best job on! That's my strategy!!!

Yes a sketch is just a guideline for your page. Just like a recipe, you can add a little more or a little less salt, so it is perfect for your taste

Wow, there are some tough choices. I like them all. I've never done a LO from a sketch, but I'll give it a try.

AlwaysHappy · Sat Mar 06, 2010 7:21 pm

Here is Pagemap I used

Here is what I ended up with. It's my first time to use Pagemaps, but I gave it my best shot. Our pets get Christmas presents each year and they know how to search them out. LOL
