It seems like forever since I shared any layouts that I've done, so I thought I'd post some of my projects.
Now - I am TOTALLY out of the Christmas mode...BUT I did PROMISE myself that I would create some holiday layouts. Pardon the poor photography, but here's a few pictures of my layouts. I think having great paper to work with makes the world of difference in jump starting my "creative process." I managed to do a record breaking 3 layouts in just a few days! There are so many times that I just sit and stare at the paper, desperately waiting for something magical to happen! But alas, it never does!
This is my attempt at not being so linear! So I added a circle!
I was completely inspired to used these leftover letters from my JOY banner from the fabulously talented Candice Carpenter. Also like that I was able to pull from my heaping pile of scraps to add to the new paper line...And of course, I just adore this picture...when you kinda just say, get together girls and this happens...a sweet and tender moment of my little one holding on to sister!
Had to get in a multi-photo layout!
This is one of the shadow boxes I did for the mother of the women in the picture. I hope she liked it! I know (or I should say, I think), I have a distinct style of scrapbooking... but I always try to envision it in the home of who will receive it and what their style or colors might be like...so this was very much an attempt to capture that with the subdued colors and "homey" feel. Not sure if that's what I accomplished - but nonetheless what I was going for.
Another project (of which I only had time to scan the inside cover) was this 6x6 mini album. I have 2 more to do that are essentially duplicates, so maybe I'll get to share the pages. But I tried to give myself a small amount of options and repeated a lot of elements throughout this 20 pager...which I was able to finish in a short amount of time. So when I finish the other 2, I will share the very simple formula - which is not new - but perhaps a motivating reminder if you are trying to get something done quickly!
