Looooove these pages! Once again, your layering just blows me away! You should totally teach a class on that!! =D Your embellishments are always spot on--love the little cameras!
ReplyDeleteI had to think about what you said about papers and embellishments for a bit. I think I'm the exact opposite. When I have plain-er papers, I tend to embellish less. I love the white space. =D But when the layers and busier background papers are used, I tend to keep on adding. Isn't it cool that we can all have our own unique style??!!
And I'm so sorry to hear about Gigi's friend's little brother. At 7 years old...just heartbreaking. I'll be praying for his family and yours as well. Hugs all around!
So then I stopped and thought about what you said about white space... and went back and really looked at some of my layouts over the past few months. It turns out that my epiphany was just bullshit! Obviously, my embellishments are purely mood oriented. I noticed that these pages of the past month or so have fewer embellishments... I just can't get my head wrapped around the embellishments for some reason. No matter how much I try 'this & that' or how hard I work on them, they just end up small (but with a definite theme that I knew they would take on from the start - does that make sense?). So my new epiphany is that sometimes I concentrate more on paper & design, sometimes more on embellishments and sometimes - just every once in a full moon - I create these layouts that share an equal amount of paper & embellishments - whether elaborate or plainish. But one thing is for sure - it doesn't go into the album unless I am happy with the layout, flaws and all.
Deletethank you so much for sharing all your wonderful pages! I have just spent time looking at all your Shimelle challenge layouts and they are wonderful. I am going to be a regular visitor to your fabulous blog.
