I had four photos from the Castillo de San José in Arrecife, an ex-fortress turned art museum; at 3x4 they were larger than those in the sketch and a mix of landscape and portrait but the sketch was quite adaptable.
I matted the photos on cardstock and filled in the extra space next to the portrait photo with a strip of patterned paper which became the backdrop to a floral embellishment cluster, and I actually followed the sketch quite closely for a butterfly-based cluster at the top left. I added a trio of nuvo drops to each cluster but they looked quite sparse so I upgraded them to a trio of trios; I think that may have been too many dots but they're done now.
I had too much journalling for the small strips on the sketch and tried it with a number of longer strips below the left photos but they didn't look right. After a bit of pondering I turned the journalling sideways and wrote on the torn paper strip at the left of the page.
