Presenting our latest Build-A-Page sketch from Prima!
....................................................................................................
This sketch is perfect for that one gorgeous photo that you want to highlight! There is also a nice-sized journaling box to record all of the important information, as well as enough extra space for some larger embellishments! Sketch by Anam Stubbington.
Want to play along? Complete a layout or other project based on this sketch and enter it here: Prima's Contest Gallery (please write Build-A-Page, May in the title).
On the 25th of May we will choose a winner from amongst the entries to receive a Prima Paper Pack of their choice! Although everyone is welcome to play along, paper packs can only be awarded to US and Canada addresses at this time.

Anam used her own sketch for this lovely layout! She followed the sketch almost perfectly using one large photo and enhancing it with Prima's flowers and Say It In Crystals. An IOD Chipboard Saying (516833) is used for the title and two cute lovebirds add a touch of whimsy to the design.
.............................................................................................................................................................
Celeste Smith presents a clean and simple, 8.5 x 11 interpretation of May's sketch. Using a bold piece of Harmony paper (860073), she then creates a focal point with a multi-layered paper flower! How cool is that? A clean and simple title finishes off the design with style!
...........................................................................................................................................................
Sharon Laakkonen also uses one photo, but orients it vertically. Lyrics to a song (which inspired the title) are recorded in the journaling area. A collection of Belle Fleur flowers (524043, 524036) and Sweetheart hearts (523282), along with the Whisper papers (820299), add a touch of romance to the layout. This sketch can be used for a variety of styles and tastes! Photo by Ann Galliers.
...........................................................................................................................................................
Janine Wahl used the sketch for a masculine page celebrating a very special relationship between her son and his uncle! Instead of large flowers for embellishments, Janine used chipboard swirls and one Twilight polka-dotted flower (520908)!
..................................................................................................................................................................
Celine Navarro uses a Felt Mattie (820701) to draw attention to the main photo on this colorful layout! A few Obsession flowers (523909, 523893) are sprinkled in for additional color, as is the turquoise Letter Perfect felt title (811853)!
.....................................................................................................................................................................
Janine Langer turns May's Build-A-Page into a circular layout! How fun is that? The Happy PIratePrima layout features tons of products...Dude papers (820282), a Painterly Petals flower (524265), an Alphabet Sticker (P-830144), chipboard from the Harmony collection (860035) and a Say It In Crystals center (521943)!!
.......................................................................................................................................................................
Mara-May Baca uses large swirls from The Bold-O-Stamps line (830021) to create lots of movement on this gorgeous page! Granada flowers (from the Caribbean Collection-509835) add bold femininity, while a touch of Prima lace (523398) grounds the design.
.......................................................................................................................................................................
Nura Keif uses a handful of Whispers papers (8820251, 820275, 820244) to create this multi-layered background, while adding two adorable photos. A large chipboard shape (516833) forms the title and a few whimsical touches of ribbon (519506) create textural interest!

I loved this sketch! I am so happy with the way my LO turned out. I posted it throught the submit to monthly contest button. How do I know if it has been accepted, is posted for the contest?
Should I post it here?

Okay, I saw it posted in the gallery. BUT, I jsut realized I titled it Build-a-sketch instead of build-a-page!!!! Yikes! Does that mean I won't be eligible for the contest? Sorry..still learning!
