Back to New York with a new layout. I've been using white cardstock a bit more lately. I'm more of a patterned paper type of girl usually but i've been wanting to use ones with such bold colors that white background are a must to bring a bit more balance.
This one started with this large piece of multicolor paper (from October Afternoon i think). I then went to my scrap basket to find pieces in matching color. Ended up with one teal, one yellow and one pink. Perfect match to the large piece of paper. I have a ton of pictures of the statue of liberty and the New York skyline in basically every color: B&W, natural, pinkish... I eventually went with the B&W version, and added a piece of hot pink to mat the photos so they would stand out more.
Then i just added my title, playing with my alphas. And created a few clusters of embellishment. Nothing fancy, A couple gems, these gorgeous resin flowers (that are actually from my SC PL kit), this gorgeous flair (also from my PL kit) and a couple stickers. Simple simple, that's the way i like it!
Make sure to come back tomorrow, i will share another layout, that i made the same day to go with this one. There might be a little step by step process ;)
Yes, I'm doing the same thing..more white, fewer patterns. A great page to mark a really special sight: something I'd love to see myself
ReplyDeleteGreat shots!
ReplyDeleteAnd embellishment clusters :)
Love this against the white, Alinor! Your photos are awesome!
ReplyDeleteI really like the hot pink mat around the pictures...and the little borders you did in pen.
ReplyDeletegreat layout and you've inspired me to revisit my travel photos. Sometimes I don't go for them because of how long has passed but that is silly. I think I'll find one and make it all purty! I love the colors you chose here, btw.
ReplyDeleteI've been using white cardstock more lately too - but that's because I got a big pack of it on sale! I love how you matted the photos onto hot pink, and those resin flowers are just lovely. x
ReplyDeletethis is really pretty! i love the colors!
ReplyDeleteWonderful layout. I can't remember being on the ferry. Love how you outlined it.
