Posted on 01. Nov, 2009 by Lisa.
There are two elements to note on this page. First look at the clever way each letter of the word FALL is embellished. It is simple, yet stunning. Next, check out the tree! How easy is that… a circle, a rectangle, and three buttons? That is an idea worth repeating.

This Halloween there is plenty of vintage, gothic, and creepy papers on the market and they are worthy of using as a focal point on your page. Be sure to take time to find the coordinating Bazzill cardstock to use as a background so the printed paper is reinforced and thick enough to hold the [...]

Too Cute To Spook
Posted on 19. Oct, 2009 by Lisa.
There is very little printed paper in this layout. To make the darling background, try pulling three Halloween-y colors, cutting each piece in strips, and attaching catty-wampus to the base cardstock using black brads in each corner. Brilliant idea. This idea would work great on boy pages too. Give it a try.

Eyes of a Child
Posted on 12. Oct, 2009 by Lisa.
Just a touch of pattern paper can be the inspiration for an entire page layout. This darling stripe prompts you to select a green, blue, and red that you probably wouldn’t pull from the Bazzill cardstock rack. But coordinate these colors with the stripe and it all comes together. Punching the circles out of coordinating [...]

Rockin’ by Jenny Packard A scrapbook page layout deserves to feature more than one photo – especially if you have a large family! Don’t be afraid to crop. Everything in the picture needs to have a reason for being there. One reason these photos look so great together is because they are all black and [...]

Princess by Susan Mast It’s all in how you dot your “i”. You probably did it with hearts when you were 11. You can still do it now that you are more than 11. Dot your “i” with hearts, flowers, brads, bling, stitching, or chipboard. Draw on your inner 11-year old. She’ll have a million [...]

Sweetie by Amy Totty Strips of cardstock are simple! Match four Bazzill colors to the patterned paper you will be using. Cut one strip of each into a 2×11 piece. Stack the cardstock horizontally along one side of the page and add the patterned paper to the opposite side. This is a nice, simple, starting [...]

Celebrate by Carol Wingert Choose your accent wisely. Look for color clues in the patterned paper you select. Which color appears occasionally but will give the project the most POP? Once you find that color, use it three more times by incorporating it into the background and then adding a splash more color in the [...]
