Finger Pointing – January 16th

Hey, Claire here, for my first GSO of 2021! I hope you are all doing well. The galleries are alive right now, there is so much beauty out there to look at. It was super hard to choose just 6 of them!

As always, it would seem I have accidentally come up with a theme – Clean or Clustertastic – my chosen layouts fit into one of these two areas. Both are big faves of mine.

Remember, you can click on the title of the post or the image to view the pages.

Farrahjobling – Live, Laugh, Love

I mean COME ON!! Just look at that adorable face 🙂 All the delicious white space and the large flower, with tape that coordinates with the flower center. It’s just wonderful.

Keepscrappin – 2021 Calendar Cover

What a wonderful idea for a family calendar cover, using all the things you are and hope to be as a group. Wonderful and the typography is just amazing, so precise, so elegant. The bow kinda blew me away.

Leablahblah – Love

As you all know I LOVE clusters and Lea’s ones on this page are amazing! I love all the bright colours, with touches of neutral’s added in. The photos are too cute, with the fun speech bubble. I do love a messy border / edge, they always remind me of my physical art journals.

SweetChar – Sparkle

I have to start by saying, I recently ‘met’ Char and was super surprised when I was browsing the galleries and her page leapt out at me. It made me laugh, I am assuming the reason we seem to get along is because we have similar tastes. Just look at all the wonderful pattern mix, with amazingly detailed clusters – ribbon, crowns, glitter, stars – they have it all, but in a super clean way. And the background paper just makes all that delightful colour pop. Sparkle, Glitter & Shine is so perfect for this page.

Pamela (PJ) Martin – …An Adventure

I loved the monochrome feel of this page, with just the photo, the leaves, and that touch of blue adding a teeny pop of colour. It’s so clean and the layers are so elegant. The rays are drawing me into the photo, which is just so clever and right for the photo.

Sylvia – Think Positive

I’m a cardmaker and I love working in a CAS (Clean And Simple) style, this wonderful page by Sylvia just captures the essence of that for me. With the little bit of paint and the pops of colour on that subtle wood background, it’s just everything I want to achieve! The photo is awesome, her red hair adding an unexpected additional piece of colour.

I hope you enjoyed today’s shoutouts. If you have some time, please show them some love and have a view through the galleries.
