Finger Pointing – October 9th

Its definitely starting to feel like fall around here. Although we haven’t had a frost yet, the temperature is hovering just a few degrees above zero so a bit crisp outside. Jane here, bringing you a few of the fabulous layouts posted in the galleries that caught my eye today.

First up today is Your Smile by Immaculeah with that darling photo. I love the colorful mix of patterned papers clipped to the tags and mixed with journal cards. The scribbled and paint splashed background adds to the fun feel of the page.

Stop Right now by Cherry Gutz is an amazing all about me page. I love how the artist has placed journal strips drawing your eye around the page. Her clustering and shadowing are amazing, while the use of the b/w photo with the blue, black and white color scheme really adds to the mood of the page. I had a day like this last weekend, so I can definitely identify.

JOMO in Malaga by musicmom3 is an artful blending of colorful photos and brushwork which popped out of the gallery. I love the large blended and masked background photo with the smaller detail accent photos.

Next up is a delightful paper page Artistic Spirits by Moriony. I love that colorful rainbow wash background with the co-ordinating fun and whimsical mix of dimensional elements.

March 18 in History by KyllieShato is a very striking page. The grid design really lends itself to her theme of interesting facts from that date. The bold background with the tri-color scheme is very effective, while the offset titlework adds the perfect final touch.

My final pick of the day Home by JenEm made my heart sing when I saw it in the gallery. I love the photo, neutral palette and touching journaling. A scattering of elements add the perfect final touch. An outstanding page!

I hope you’ve enjoyed my choices today. If so, please leave some love in the galleries for these talented artists.
