“Creatively Yours” Design Team Member Beth Price’s sketch #50 interpretation also expresses a love of photography! She “exposes” some lovely floral papers in her layout creation!
A Guest Designer at “Creatively Yours” for February 2009, Ching Phillips created a richly textured & eye catching layout using Sketch #50 as her inspiration.

“Creatively Yours” Designer Jana Fail created a layout with SUCH visual impact here! With inspiration from Sketch #50, Jana’s LO truly packs a joyful punch!!

“Creatively Yours” Designer Helga Payawal-Vergara used glitter and a rich, vibrant green background to introduce us to the love of her life. A precious layout from the inspiration gained in Sketch #50!

“Creatively Yours” Designer Ann Seleshanko created this rich, earthy layout that just makes me want to smile every time I see it! What a beautiful creation, inspired by Sketch #50!

I would like to close this post tonight with a very warm and appreciative THANK YOU to our “Creatively Yours” Designers and February 2009 Guest Designers who, in sharing their talent with us, helped commemorate Noella’s 50th Sketch Creation.
