Scrapbooking sketches are a useful tool for so many scrapbooking fans. We keep notebooks of our own sketches, tear them out of magazines and even buy books filled with scrapbooking sketches. Doesn’t it make sense to combine sketches with scrapbooking challenges? Pencil Lines has done just that!
Pencil Lines is a blog all about using sketches to expand your artistic horizons, get you outside your box, and lift you out of scrappers block and to help you get more layouts done. It is about thinking outside your normal processes to create something wonderful.
Pencil Lines Start
Pencil Lines started in October of 2006 with Sketch #1. They have just recently published Sketch #105.

New sketches are posted every Sunday.
Pencil Lines Prizes
Every month the design team picks their favorite reader’s layout to win the prize.

Pencil Lines Design Team
The Pencil Lines design team consists of eight talented women. Each week also includes a guest designer.
What Makes Pencil Lines Standout
Consistency of posting – I’m sure it takes a lot of work to produce a sketch and wonderful layouts on a weekly basis but they get it done and have been getting it done for two years!
Variety in design team – The design team is consists of artists from various countries and with different styles. I like that a lot!
PDF versions of sketches – Go ahead, grab their sketches on PDFs. They are designed 4 to a page so you aren’t using up all your paper!
