Looking for scrapbook layout sketch ideas? Today I’m showing how to take one Allison Davis scrapbook layout sketch and turn it into a beautiful mermaid scrapbook layout by reimagining the circle elements as water and movement.
This video is part of our monthly YouTube Sketch Hop, where 9 creatives all use the same sketch in completely different ways.Nine creatives are all using the same Allison Davis sketch from Hip Kit Club, and today I’m sharing how I took a beautiful garden-themed circle sketch and transformed it into a mermaid-inspired scrapbook layout full of movement, water, and under-the-sea vibes.
Instead of using the circles as flowers, I show you how to rethink the design and use those same shapes to create waves, motion, and themed visual flow.
This video is all about learning how to take ANY sketch and make it work for YOUR photos and YOUR story theme.
I also share several additional ideas for how these circle elements could work for many other themes and occasions.
