Finger Pointing – August 4th

Hi gang! It’s Laura here with a late night edition of the GSO. I hope you’re inspired by these wonderful pages.

Biggest Cache Ever by Small Moments
I am a huge fan of creative title work. I simply love the mix of texture and size in these alphas. The energy in this page is fantastic – there’s so much movement with the arrows and dotted circles. Overall, this is page is well-designed and perfectly embellished too. Great layout!

The Six of Us by zenjen
This page utilizes really awesome layering and matting to anchor the photo. The different textures give the layout loads of depth and visual interest. I especially like the stitching and multiple frames. It’s a beautiful page!

How much do those black frames and high key photos pop against the weathered white background? I love the bold contrasts in this page, particularly with the zings of color. They add just the right touch. I also love that this scrapper made the journaling an integral part of the design. It’s nice to see the story front and center. Super work!

Ice cream by Stephanie
This happy, bright page makes wonderful use of shape repetition. It makes the page really cohesive, yet the variety of shapes is so playful. I really like the mix of patterns on the pennants and the sweet photo. This is a darling layout!

This is another layout that uses strong repetition to great effect. The grid of squares is a classic design, but the tilt adds that bit of whimsy. The fun series of photos and playful patterned papers work well together, while the addition of the stitches is an excellent focal anchor in the design. Well done!

Thanks for joining me tonight. I hope you have a wonderful week!
