The Details…
One of the things I loved about this layout was the strip down the center with a few stamped elements on either side. So I kept those details on my layout but did make a few alterations to the sketch to make it work for my single 4″ x 6″ photo.
It’s been awhile since I created a layout with so much stamping on it and love how it turned out. The Gorgeously Made stamp set is such a great one for adding layers to a background. And the colours of this dsp worked perfectly to bring in the green of the trees and the peacock coloured water. It was like it was made for this photo. I can’t wait to create the facing page with the other photos I took.
I don’t normally include measurements for scrapbook layouts but I know some crafters like to recreate layouts they see online so here are the measurements so you don’t need to figure them out:)
Measurements:
- Fresh as a Daisy DSP: 12″ x 12″ (cut out the middle – I left a 1″ border) and 1/2″ x 10″ strip; 2″ x 6″ cut with the torn edge border die from the Gorgeously Made dies; 3″ x 3-1/2″ cut with the torn notebook border from the same die set
- Basic Black: 11-1/2″ x 11-1/2″ and 1/2″ x 10-1/2″ strip and scraps for title
- Basic White: 11-1/4″ x 11-1/4″ and 2″ x 3-1/2″ for cutting the tag and scrap for stamping
Check out the video below to see how this layout came together.
Thanks so much for visiting my blog. Hop on over to Cheryl’s blog to see what she has created and then continue along for more sketch inspiration.
