This free scrapbook page sketch comes from a page made by Kim Watson for the Process Play class in the Get It Scrapped Membership. It’s also a part of the template and sketch library that holds 110+ Photoshop templates and page sketches, searchable by # of photos and layout type.
The full-page photo here is great for lending impact to captured moments and evoking strong emotions, as evidenced by Kim Watson’s Serendipity.

Jennifer Kellogg says, “I was drawn to this sketch because of the one large photo, and I used it to make a page about how calm and happy I am on cloudy days.”
“I took this photo with my iPhone. I’ve been wanting to use it on a layout, but I had this blurry spot that would really take away from the photo. When I saw this template I was thrilled I could scrap my photo and cover up the blurry (distracting) background.”

Jett Hampton says, ” I love this sketch for its use of a large photo with many embellishments, but still maintaining the focus on the photos.”
“This layout is about my niece’s first triathlon and I didn’t have a way to print an 8” x 12” photo so I used a 5.5″ x 8,” a second smaller photo and I enlarged the wordart I used for my title.”

Karen Poirier-Brode says, “I picked this sketch because I am a fan of Kim Watson’s delightful layered bits style. It used one photo and I’ve wanted to do a page with this story and photo of my weight loss for some time.”
“I found the multiple colors in the photo a bit challenging at first but the multiple pieces in the template was a help because I found I could incorporate enough color in the elements to unify the page. I used two kits by the same designer to be sure all the multiple parts worked together and I kept pretty much to the structure of the page though I did rotate it.”
