Finger Pointing – June 17th

Hi there everyone!

Hope you are all having a fun weekend that includes some scrapping time.

I am enjoying the start to the long weekend and having some QT with my family and at my desks, I also enjoyed a nice peruse through the galleries.

svanderhaegen – It’s The Little Things

I love the colour palette here, the neutral background with the pops of yellow and green, it’s lovely. I like the flow too, the layering of all the paper pieces, with the photos peeking out. I’m also a big fan of a ‘bottom’ cluster, sometimes in a white space page, it adds an anchor point to your page, as it does so well here.

Mother Bear – Daddy

What a stunning page! It is so rich and fun, I love everything about it. The b&w photos pop out from the colourful ‘nest’ they are in. The clusters are amazing and I love all the cogs and additional elements tucked in. What a great way to celebrate Dad.

Iowan – 2023 Venice

The blending here is amazing! I love how the paper just naturally feels like part of the image. Take a closer look and you will see ‘June’ in the sky, wonderful detail. The cluster with Venice is awesome, I love magazine letters, they can give you a really funky look, perfect here for the sassy, happy photo.

Hilary – Learner’s Permit

I love the vertical layout. His smile is one that is very fresh in my mind having got my US Learner’s Permit in 2021! I love the way that she has used alphas to spell ‘Learner’s’ it’s a great pop of colour and fits the happy nature of the page. I also love the long stitch, holding everything in place.

SanVHM – Living my Zest life

If you know me, you know I can’t resist a pun, so this made me LOL. I love the layers here, the pops of yellow and red are really nice. I love the sketchy lemon and the placement, feeling like it is on the edge of a glass. The clean ‘white’ space is perfect too, so that the image and all the elements shine.

Stephc777 – Together

Such a cute photo I love it! The cluster around the frame is fabulous and her shadows are perfect. I love all the pattern mixing and the perfect layering of the papers. The big wide strip anchoring the photo and the cluster is great. I really love her title work too, I love overlapping letters for some reason!

Hope you have enjoyed these layouts and will go and show these talented scrappers some love. Have a great weekend and see you next time.
