My favorite so far is from SCS, sketch SS175.

The reason is because I was really happy with the card I created using this sketch.

I have just started doing sketches to improve my cardmaking skills. Thank goodness for them. Here is a weekend sketch from Beate that I liked the layout. It is pretty typical of what I usually do.
http://beate.blogs.splitcoaststampers.com/2008/01/18/weekend-sketch-challenge-31/ Now that summer vacation is here I hope to do more sketches!
Congratulations on all your hits. One of my favorite sketches is one of Taylor's cupcake sketches. I have it posted here along with a card I made using her sketch.
Love your blog! Thanks for all the inspiration!
Here is a sketch I created a while ago.

My favorite of all time has already been mentioned. SC175.......I just love the flow of the half circles and have seen many great cards using that sketch. It would work well on a page I be thinkin'.
awwwwwwwwww poop! I forgot the link.........LOL

Silke, Congrats on the 80,000 hits! Very exciting, and you're celebrating generously, my friend!
I skimmed through my sketch book, and there are so many fantastic sketches out there! I guess the sketches I favor have multiple layers, and helps in creating a natural-looking layout, instead of looking like the card was created to fit the sketch ... kwim?
One of my favorites is Julee Tilman's Mojo Monday #25 ... http://poeticartistry.blogspot.com/2008/02/mojo-monday-week-25.html ... it offers a great natural balance!
Wow, Silke...GREAT blog candy! I'm sure a lot of people will be signing up for this (once they research their sketch, of course). I knew right away what sketch to give you....the one I always go back to: MOJO#12
Here's the link: http://poeticartistry.blogspot.com/2007/11/mojo-monday-week-12.html
Hugs, D~
Hi Silke,

My favorite sketch is one from Julia S. a while back. I loved the lines of it and was able to make some great cards with it. Here's Julia's sketch.
Wow, what wonderful sketches people are offering up. Thanks for the wonderful blog this is exactly what I needed for a little extra inspiration tonight to plan some cards for a class. This is the sketch I have been using most often and came looking for more ideas becuase I have used it too much this past week.
http://beate.blogs.splitcoaststampers.com/2008/05/23/weekend-sketch-challenge-49/
Great idea to list favorite sketches. I love Jen's sketches on her blog, but this one was so different and could use some smaller stamps. http://iheart2stamp.com/2008/03/22/oldies-but-goodies-on-my-sketch-for-you-to-try/
Congrats on all of your hits and sharing your great work!
