Finger Pointing – September 17th

Hello there!

I hope everyone is having a nice weekend. I am mainly hanging with Hubby this weekend, as I was away for 5 days on vacation and then we had a house guest.

I am just getting back into the swing of scrapping and the galleries are inspiring me a lot, so I will be spending some of my day today scrapping.

Angels – You

I just love everything about this. It is very me to go with a busy background and then a big cluster. It’s so impactful and Angels does it so well here!! I love the mix of title work and all the fab word strips. Her shadows are amazing. It’s just wonderful and cheery and happy!

Stefanie – Grey Skies

I love digital pages that feel like physical art journal pages. I love the monochrome palette Stefanie used here with the splashes of yellow to add interest. I love that there are little bit of journaling and text all over the page, so your eye is drawn to all the details. A really great example of how to art journal digitally.

Vrielinkie – Chores & Chores: Laundry

This made me LOL when I saw it! I love the photos.. I love doing laundry and I often wonder if I was fascinated by washing machines as a child! I love the elegance of the layout and the simple colour palette. The bubbles are just such a perfect touch for the subject matter. Again another great example of mixed title work, which I am a big fan of. A perfect fun, elegant layout.

JenEm – Wish

Perfect kit choice for this cute photo. I love the composition here so much detail, but the monochrome palette means that it doesn’t feel busy. I am a big fan of stars, so I really love all the different ones scattered throughout the page. I never really recolour my photos, but this is a great example of how to do it and is making me want to give that a go in my pages.

FiddletteDesigner – Love

I really love it when designers make layouts with their own products, really giving me food for thought when using them myself. If this page were a blank colouring page, I would be thrilled and excited to colour it. I love the composition here with the girl taking centre stage and all the other elements leading to or from her. The shadows are amazing and I really love the mix of coloured and outlined mandalas in the background.

Anja_77 – Cherished Memories

I mean just WOW!! The soft background with the blended text and paints is perfection. The large cluster to the left of the stacked frames is wonderful. An almost monochrome page, with just a couple of pops of colour, so pretty. I love that Anja has added a frame over the girl, creating a focus on the gorgeous photo and it’s an extra piece of detail that works really well. I’m in love with the whole page, the flow, the colours, I just love it.

That’s all from me, I’ll see you in October – likely to be later in the month, due to us moving! I hope you have enjoyed my picks today and will go and show these talented scrappers some love. Keep scrapping and have a wonderful weekend.
