New Sketch Blog & Design Team Call

I don't know how everyone else feels about using sketches to create their layouts, but they are an absolute essential for me!  I used to literally spend hours staring down at pictures and paper trying to figure out how I should arrange them.  Now that I have two small children, I just cannot be agonizing over the design of my layout.  There are way too many photos to be scrapped and hardly any moments of time to do so. So when I discovered that there were sketch blogs and challenge sites out there, I was ecstatic! I've even started designing my own sketches and am part of the sketch team at the Colorful Creations blog.  So for those reasons I was excited to discover a brand new sketch blog called Let's Get Sketchy!  They're currently running a design team and sketch team call, both of which I am submitting for.  If you have a chance, go check out their new blog and the current mini challenge that's running for their debut.  You can find them here --> Let's Get Sketchy!

For the call, you must use the below sketch:

And here's my interpretation:


I used a picture of Paolina from her newborn photo shoot...it's so hard to believe that was over a year and a half ago! My husband got a huge kick out of the title...which I thought was perfect for either of our kids really. You see, while I'm an American citizen, my husband is a Mexican citizen...so doesn't that make our kids "imported and domestic" lol??
