Hi everyone! Carmel here.
It’s winter here in Australia and we have had a few cold days where I am, so I am happy to see some summer themed layouts appearing throughout the galleries. Here are my picks for today.
First up this bright summery layout “Enjoy Life” by myssp
I love the great masking and blending of the pic and then the cluster of beachy elements down one side. The double frame and paper edges really set of the layout well.
Still on the sunny theme this really caught my eye – “You Are My Sunshine” by Dady
The layout is just so bright and beautiful. I love all the shapes – the repeated rectangles mirroring the frame, created with the different papers and layers. The sun burst is really effective and all completed with just the right elements. Hello Sunshine, indeed!
Next this layout from marijke which carries through the colors of summer. I love the positioning of the layout with everything down the one side and how the colors really pop in contrast to the black and white photo. The amazing shadowing on the elements really make them stand out from the page and I love the paint in the background.
What could be more summery than strawberries?! I just love this cute page “Some Bunny” from Miki. I love the masking and blending of the photos showing the strawberry plant and those luscious strawberries. The framing and addition of the elements is just magical along with the blended textures and brushes. That cute bunny is just the right finishing touch.
Another beach layout – Beachcombing by SonjaS is a stunner. Great masking and blending of the photo and I love the warped shape of the frame! Great wordart too!
Lastly with our summer theme – Cool by the Pool by Margie – this again has great blending to create the “splashy” background. Great framing and I love the wordart popped right onto the photo.
Well, they are my picks for today – hope they brought some sunshine to your day!
Remember to leave some love in the galleries for any layouts that inspire you.
Until next time – happy scrapping.
