Although I don't typically post on Sundays, I've been scrapbooking all weekend and really wanted to share something scrapbook related today to cap it off.
Let's face it....sometimes you need to get pages done quickly and make some progress, instead of spending hours on just a couple page layouts, right? This k.i.s.s. feature is to inspire you to do just that. Check out this color blocking layout I created with my Sunshine & Happiness Collection.
I mixed some old with new here including new Daily Chevies Bella Pepper giant chevron (top row), and more recent Crochet Hearts too. For the layout design I simply split the 12x12" base paper into a 4x4" grid and trimmed all my photos and patterns accordingly.
Then I color blocked monochramatically within the patterns sqaures: adding Yellow embellishments to the yellow block, Blue Sienna Chip alphabets to the blue patterned block, a purple flower sticker to the purple patterned block, and so on and so forth.
Keeping the embellishments in the color-line helps make the photographs pop more. Try this on your next page if you're looking for something simple and clean!
