SUNDAY SKETCH WITH VANESSA TACONELLI

 

Hello CTK friends!

It's Vanessa Taconelli here. I am so excited to be here with you for today's Sunday Sketch. Here's the beautiful sketch that I worked with to create my design.

And this is what I created:

I used the sketch as inspiration to create a 6x8 layout on my notebook. The mix & match with the digital collections Routines and 2023 Travelogue was perfect for this moment. The colors are so beautiful. I am so crazy about the layers and clusters and you ? Love all the layers and blends.

I hope this inspires you to use the sketch for a project of your own. Cannot wait to see what you create with the sketch.

Sunday Sketch with Katarina

 

Hi CTK friends,

Katarina back with you, bringing you another Sunday Sketch inspiration. As always, we have a beautiful sketch that can be used as inspiration for any format of layout.

Here's the sketch:

I created a layout in my 6*8 Life Crafted Album and used the gorgeous Travelogue '23 Kit and the new Sadie Upper and Lower Alphabet Stamps. Let's have a look:

The sketch really inspired me a lot and I decided to follow it almost fully. The only problem was to keep so much clean space, with so many beautiful products at my desk.

For my background I used one of the Travelogue '23 digital papers and I used some more as layers under my two photos. For some added texture and for journaling purposes, I added one of the tags from the Travelogue '23 Ephemera.

I embellished my photos with some of the Tiny Words stickers and Circle Stickers from the Travelogue '23 Kit. They were a perfect addition to my hiking story.

Then I enjoyed some stamping. For my title, I combined the new Sadie Alphabet Upper and Lower Stamps. Next I used the Cravings Stamp to add some more stamping to fill in the space between my title and photos. To add some more interest, I used two colors of ink.

I found the "Let's Go Explore" sign die cut so perfect for this layout, that I just had to add it next to my title. If you look closer at the sketch, there are very subtle splatters in the top right side of the design. Here I decided to go for more stamping and used some of the tiny stamps from the Cravings Stamp and a subtle grey ink to add some words related to my story.

As a final touch, I added a bunch of CTK Jewel Enamel Dots in perfectly matching colors. I really love how my layout turned out, it is always so refreshing to use a sketch as inspiration for my projects. Will you try it? 

Thank you for stopping by today, friends and have a lovely rest of your weekend.

SUNDAY SKETCH WITH MARINA

Hello, CTK friends!

Today Marina with you and here is my inspiration in our Sunday Sketch Challenge: I added my lovely page to the spread of my 6x8 Spring album and I just love how easy it is to do this using our sketches! :)

Here's that beautiful sketch that helped me today: I used it "as is" but you remember that you can do literally anything with sketches, right?.. You can turn it to the right, to the left, or even upside down, you can mirror it - it all depends on your personal view :) 

...and this is what came out of it :)

For the design of the page I used our great April Travelogue-23 Kit:

To highlight the main characters in the photo, I added a frame from - old, but gold - Flea Market Findings:

To create the layers, I picked up the paper in our clothing palette: blue and orange

I chose yellow as an accent color and added it to one of the layers and to the header - my favorite Sun Yellow Alphabet :)

To bring the entire spread into balance, I added some blue, yellow and orange to the opposite side with a journaling card and our April's Digital Elements:

And honestly, I really like the result! :))

I love sketches and use them often when creating my pages, and you can find them on our blog literally every Sunday, don't miss out!

We always look forward to seeing what you create with them, so be sure to tag Citrus Twist Kits in your posts!

Thank you all for your attention and have a great week!

Sunday sketch with Alena

 Hey everyone!  It's Alena with  layout for Sunday Sketch.

Here's a look at the sketch this week:

I created the layout using the new inspirational TRAVELOGUE 23 LIFE-CRAFTED KIT. 

The basis of the layout is a white cardstock, on which I added fragments of patterned paper. 

I replaced the vertical that is on the sketch with round elements. I also added pieces of Ephemera that perfectly match my pink down jacket in the photo.

Well, then it is time for you be inspired by the sketch to create a page of your own.  Remember to share your creations with us on the Citrus Twist Kits Friends page on Facebook or by using #CTK, @Citrustwistkits on social media.  I cannot wait to see what you create with this sketch.

                 

Sunday Sketch with Desiree

Hi crafty peeps! I am excited to share the Sunday sketch with the new, awesome, exclusive 2023 Travelogue kit. Let's take a look at this week's sketch.

I thought that this sketch would be perfect for me because it is simple enough for me to put my own spin on it. The first thing I thought about was layering the beautiful, bold color patterned papers from the Travelogue kit on this page.

For this sketch challenge, I decided to do a spread in my Sunshine Life Crafted Album.  Before layering the digital Travelogue papers under my picture, I smudged a bit of yellow ink on the paper to peek from under the cluster. 

I added a smaller picture to the lower right side of the larger picture. Then I layered the Travelogue Ephemera through the page. Below the cluster, I placed my typed journaling.

I decided to have a lot of fun with the left page. I started by smudging yellow and green ink on my paper. Once I saw the travel-themed polaroid picture die cuts, I knew wanted to vertically stack them on my page.  To add more interest, I staggered the die cuts vertically over my smudged ink, layering them over floral ephemera from the Travelogue die cuts.  I added the "journey" and "explore" die-cut words to the vertical cluster.

I used the Chloe Alphabet Stamp to add the small "into the city" title to the bottom of the page. Then I completed the spread by adding black splatters to tie in both pages.

I absolutely love the finished results of this Sunday Sketch. My favorite has to be the Travelogue papers in the cluster and the stacked polaroids from the Travelogue Die Cuts. 

I am so happy you joined me today. I wish you a happy, crafty weekend.

XO Desiree
