Sketch N Scrap Challenge #42

Hello Everyone, Happy October! This year has been flying right by. I'm here today with a fun sketch from Sketch-N-Scrap. It's a new month, so there is a new prize to win. Make sure you add your layout to the SNS Blog!
For my layout today, I chose 3 photos of the triplets putting together some craft kits I picked up at Target. They love getting their hands on my crafts, so it was high time they got their own. The photos feature a lot of color, so I chose papers that followed the same colorful scheme.
For the most part, once I've found my photos and the papers I want to use for a sketch, it comes together pretty easy. There are times though, I'm held up by one MAJOR part of the layout. THE TITLE! Sometimes, it just doesn't come to me. Does that happen to any of you? You just can't come up with a title that speaks for the page? That is how this page was for me. I had the it all done, except for a title. I just couldn't come up with one. How did I solve my problem? I took a photo of the layout and messaged a friend. In no time I had my title. Don't be afraid to ask for help. I would've never come up with this one on my own, and I think it is perfect. To make the title I designed it in Adobe Illustrator and cut it out with my cricut. I cut it out of white card stock then colored it using the same technique as on my August 1st post.
Products used in this layout:
Fancy Pants • It's Your Day • My Day
My Minds Eye • Wild Asparagus • Orange
Paper Studios • Denim
Basic Grey • Paper Labels • Wander
Sassafras • Count • Flag Banners
