To start off the new year I wanted to get back to the simple things with this inspiration. So, my focus is about frames - something we practically use every time we scrapbook. We usually frame something on our page to help the eye focus on what is really important. I wanted to explore the idea of frames a little bit and ended up having fun!
With the Snow Angel page I have four different frames focusing on my one great picture. I wanted something to emphasize that single shot (which was totally accidental, just pointed the camera and shot - funny how the good ones turn out that way sometimes!) and started with the photo. I took three Making Memories Paperie papers and used large scallop scissors to make the edges interesting. Frames don't necessarily need to completely encompass the subject so I kept one edge blank. I used the partial decorative edge paper to frame the left side of the picture and snowflake pattern paper. For frame number three, I used a variety of Making Memories Paperie buttons along the edge of the same pattern paper, again only a partial frame - repeating the same idea as before. Finally, the black outer edges of the entire page make up the final frame.
So, take something simple, and explore different ways you can be creative with it!
This layout was created using Paperie Rouge papers, buttons, stickers, flowers, and embellishments. Fa La La paper and Passport buttons were used as well.
