LADY LIBERTY

Remember that layout about Staten Island? Well that new layout is gonna be next to it in the album. It's not a double page layout (i'm really not a big fan of those) but i still wanted them to look a bit alike, so i used that same Pink Paper and also those hot pink thickers. But that's pretty much it.

Here's a quick step by step of how this layout came together:
My starting point. simpler would be difficult
More papers, a picture and some doodles. don't ask me why, i have no idea. just felt like it.
add your title and the base for your embellishments: washi to ground everything and wood veneer because i love them

Keep on embellishing. And finally some journaling and the date. and a couple phrase stamps.


This layout was really fun to create. I love how the simplicity of the sketch is balanced by a lot of embellishing with tiny bits and pieces: papers, stickers, dots, veneers...
Note: the sketch was inspired by this layout from These Boots were meant for blogging. I love her style!
