Love this tutorial! Thanks!
I’m so glad, Julie! Thanks for letting us know.
Thanks very much for this quick tutorial!
You’re so welcome, Connie! I hope you enjoy using this technique.
OMGoodness! I am impressed! I can’t wait to make a layout with the picture I have used! Thank you so much Karen for the awesome tutorial!
I’m so glad you liked the tutorial, DeLoris! I know you will make an outstanding page, so I’ll be looking for it in the Community!
Love this tutorial. I’m really pleased with my results so far.
I’ve so glad to hear that! Thanks for letting us know, Vivian! I hope to see your page in the Community!
Thanks Karen! I had a First Day Of Kindergarten pic of my DGD which cried out for this effect. I know we had a tutorial on it before but you saved me having to dig around.
Oh… I hope we will see your scrapbook page with your sketch in the community!
I’m in total AWE of your layout, Karen…and all layouts created using your tutorial!! I’m excited for things to settle down for me and start scrapping again!! This is definitely a push to get back to it all!! Thank you, Karen!!
Oh, I agree, Glori! It’s so fun to see all of the layouts using this easy technique. I hope things settle for you soon, as I am looking forward to seeing what you do with this technique!
Fabulous tutorial… Another tool in the tool box now. Thanks.
So glad you like it, Kay!
Thanks Karen! I did a sketch a few years ago, but when I tried to do another one, I couldn’t remember how to do it!!
You’re welcome, Deanna. Now you will always find this on the DS YouTube channel!
Fabulous tutorial on this sketch effect! Love the examples. Will have to try it soon.
Great! I will look forward to seeing what you do, Norma!
I always forget how to do this and have to find it! Thank you so much for the tutorial!
Thanks Karen – I love the simplicity of creating this effect and getting such fun results! Thank you!
Great tutorial! Thank you so much Karen!
I’m glad you liked it. You’re welcome!
Love it and thank you very much. I have one question on Part 1. At the end of the tape you say to add the level layer, but then how do you attach it. Yours disappears. My level is still in my layers panel.
Thank you
Hi Bonnie! I’m glad you like the sketch tutorial. If you look at your layers panel, the Levels layer will still be there. What disappears is the Levels adjustment box/options. I hope that clears up the confusion. If not, let me know. Thanks for your question. If you had it, others did too, I’m sure!
I am still trying to figure out how I missed this tutorial. Each layout is unique but clearly defines your tutorial in the most positive way. So thankful that the link was posted on Facebook page. Thank you for including everything within the download. 🙂
Hi Shirley, I’m so glad you saw the tutorial on FB, and I hope you have fun with it! Karen
