Challenge accepted Heather!!
For my layout, I powered up my Silhouette and used design # 3557. I've seen a few layouts using a grid size template around. Using patterned paper in the negative spaces for design cuts is also popular right now, so I wanted to incorporate both. I used the Webster's Pages "Family Traditions" collection. This layout came together so quickly. I wanted the focus to be on the pictures, so I did very little embellishing. I love how it turned out. Thanks for the great challenge, Heather, as I also struggle with fitting a lot of photos in a layout. I hope this left you inspired!
For Cat's layout, she did a double page layout and was able to fit in 7 pics. She used Fancy Pants Designs Beach Bum collection and embellished with the cut apart cards, rub-ons and stickers from the collection.
Thanks so much for stopping by. As promised, let's give away some prizes. Our fishbowl is getting sad and doesn't have a lot of challenges in it. We need MORE. Comment below with a challenge idea and we'll pick a winner. Maybe 2. woot! And if your challenge is picked in the coming weeks/months, you will win a prize that week.
Stay True Blue

Can't wait to see all the pics. I will have to cut you the design I used for my layout above. It would be perfect for all those pics you're taking!!!! Safe travels back!
DeleteLove the way your LO's turned out! Great use for all those pictures!
ReplyDeleteI like to do 2page matching picture LO's. My challenge would be how do you do 2page LO's with unrelated pictures.( Like 1 page with trip photos and 1 page with a ballet recital side by side.)
Another challenge: I want to do a page that vomited flowers, but am afraid to start-like a ballet picture or special baby picture-want to use up a lot of flowers!!
ReplyDeleteMake a some layouts with realistic or unique 'water' on them. Like beach and pool layouts. I always see some cool 'water' techniques but can never remember them when I want to do it on a layout.
ReplyDeleteWhat is your #1 scrapbooking "must-have" tool and in what ways do you use it?
