Have you tried any of the classes over on Big Picture Classes? I started watching videos from Paige Evans' class (Paige's Pages 2) and was inspired to make a cruise layout using the monochromatic layout lesson. Joe and I went on an Eastern Caribbean cruise in June and this layout will be included in my 2015 album (it's a combination of layouts and Project Life spreads). We took this selfie as we were sailing away from the dock.
I pulled out all the blue embellishments from Basic Grey's "Adrift" collection and started placing them around on the page. I cut out stickers with the backs still attached so I could move everything around to get it just right.
I then added some sequins and enamel dots to complete the layout. I really like how it turned out! I could have maybe put a blue paper across the 12x12 - but I loved that rope paper and wanted to use it.
Have you ever made a monochromatic layout?
Wow that is a cool layout :) I've done a few of the monochromatic layout they do turn out to be really pretty layouts, The embies here are just fitting for the layout and a really cute picture of you and Joe. Happy Memorial Day my friend :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Tina! I could see myself doing another monochromatic layout that wasn't so theme-y like this one was. I love how it turned out!
DeleteWhat a fun layout, Emily, looks like the Adrift collection is perfect for your cruise photos! I haven't tried a monochromatic color scheme, but it's on my list! :)
ReplyDeleteYes it is the perfect collection for me, Elise! I"m going to cut up papers from the collection to make PL cards and embellishments with.
DeleteThis is gorgeous! As you know, I love anything nautical so this page really jumped out at me!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mandi!! You can't go wrong with a nautical look!
