March 2010 :: Project 12

Hello everyone! Time for me to share with you my March layout for Project 12. The sketch was again a Becky Fleck one:


I've said it before, I'll say it again: I usually never follow sketches a lot. I'll 'fess up to the reason why: I like to submit for publication. Whether I get paid for a published layout or I get compensated with scrapbooking products, it sure helps me since we are a one income family (being a stay-at-home-mom takes sacrifices!) I believe submitting something that looks exactly like a sketch by someone else would be unethical... Am I wrong?

So I don't usually use sketches very much (and if I do, I just use them as a starting point only, the end result never looks like the original, lol) Don't get me wrong: there's nothing wrong in using a great sketch. I just chose not to do it. Except for project 12. I know these layouts are just for me. It feels good not to have to think about design. So, without further ado (it's "ado" people, not "adieu"! ;) ), here's my layout (I'm sorry that it's crooked!):

I took a picture before I erased my pencil marks, sorry!

Life is not a race. Take it slower. Hear the music before the song is over.♥

Claude, I agree with you somewhat on the sketch idea. I have a freedom with this project as well. I don't care who makes what and when, and I use what photos I want to and feel free. I do this project for me as well. I'm glad you are enjoying it!
