Hello, everyone! Katherine here with today’s round of super gorgeous Standouts! It’s been a while since I last posted, been on somewhat of a hiatus, can’t deny it felt good to round through the galleries again. Anyway, I hope you are well pleased with my choices!

Starting us off this evening is this super lovely layout titled Embrace Me With Laughter by Margje. Really love the design and how the layout artist has framed that super adorable image with all that gorgeous brushwork. Love the show of color, too!

Next is this fabulous art journaling/photoless work of art by AnikA68 titled oh. I chose this one exclusively for the journaling/story telling. Seriously, I LOVE the journaling/story telling here!

I so adore well put together PL layouts and Mrivas‘ 2019 Week 14 Left and Right does not disappoint. The pairing of the black and white images with the color images is fabulous, and I LOVE all the text, it creates so much visual interest throughout the entire two page spread.

Up next is this fabulously adorable pet layout titled cats rule by mcurtt. Love the diagonal split in patterns, so eye-catching! And the yellow against the muted tone is quite striking! Not to mention that adorable little kitty!

I reallyyyy love the eclectic feel of Iowan’s work in 2008 Worth A Thousand Words. I love all the pops of color here, and that image is so precious!

Rounding out my choices this evening is this PL(like)beauty titled Peoplemover by tinkerbell1112. Really love the super fun vibe the layout artist has captured here. And just like the PL spread above, I really love the text and how much visual interest it creates. The color palette is pretty fabulous, too!

I hope that you all have found these gorgeous Standouts as inspirational as I have! Many blessings to you all! XXOO

Hello, everyone! Katherine here with today’s round of super gorgeous Standouts! It has been quite some time since I posted last, I almost forgot how inspiring rounding through the galleries can be. Almost. I hope you are well pleased with my choices!

Starting us off this evening is this delightful white on white layout by Heidi Nicole titled 23 Degrees | January 2019. The design here is nothing short of fabulous, and the white on white works so well! The image and the text really stand out against the neutral tones!

I loved the white on white so much that I ended up choosing another one! LOL! Up next is this super STUNNING white on white layout titled 10 things about me by amandaresende. Like the layout above, the design here is nothing short of fabulous, and the black and white images and black text really create a ton of visual interest throughout the entire layout! Amanda’s shadow work is pretty stellar, too.

I have somewhat of a weak spot for PL layouts, and this one by Tracermajig titled Weeks 1 & 2, 2019 does not disappoint! The blocked design, all the wonderful images, the tonal palette with the pops of color here and there, and of course all the wonderful text really drew me in! And I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention how much I adore all the stitching, too!

Up next is this striking artsy layout titled DEAR DIARY by wombat146. The blending and masking is absolutely perfect here, and I LOVE the perspective on the image! The quote is pretty fabulous as well!

I fell head over heels for this next Standout by Margje titled Travel diary. The blending on the image is absolutely spectacular! I love all the grungey here, too, and the little cluster of elements just to the right of the image is the perfect complement!

Rounding out my choices this evening is this beauty titled Jona by Cherrylej. I was instantly drawn to this in the gallery. The design is fabulous, and that color palette with the blacks and browns with the pops of blue is so striking! Love all the messy everything!

I hope that you all have found these gorgeous Standouts as inspirational as I have! Until next time … stay warm!

Hello, everyone, and welcome! Katherine here with today’s round of GORGEOUS Standouts! I really hope you adore my picks!

I absolutely adore the uniqueness in the design in this first Standout by Kayleigh titled Unforgettable. The cut-out pattern here is super fabulous (reminds me of a spirograph), and I love how each one sports a different patterned paper. The tri-color palette in the papers and the embellishments is absolutely wonderful, too, pairs so well with the black and white images!

Love the Project Life-like feel to this next Standout titled Greenwich by kikimama. The tonal palette works perfectly with those images, and I love the layout artist’s selection of patterned papers. I also love how she has used one of the images as a background, too! Very creative!

Next up I have this beauty by Twinsmomflor titled Tell Me. The artsy here is incredible! The mastery in the processing of the image is pretty mind-blowing. Love how the majority of it has that sketch-y look to it, really creates a ton of visual interest. Placement of the stitching really works well to frame it all in, while the title acts as an anchor to it all. A really fabulous layout!

I really couldn’t decide between this next pair of layouts by Lizziet5, the first one titled Loving this Moment anndddd …

the second one, Priceless Memories (both count as one pick ;P). They both sport the same design, which I LOVE by the way, but what made it so hard decide was the images. I love the genuinely sweet smile on the handsome little guy’s face in the first one, but just could not resist the personality that shines through in the second. Soooo … I picked both. I’m certain none of you all mind, just more goodness to look at, right?! LOL!

Next up is this fabulous Project Life-like layout titled 2014 Legoland America by Iowan. Reallyyyy loving the patriotic feel to this one! The blocking is fantastic (the blocking pattern is what actually draws me to these types of layouts), and I reallyyyy like the stitching, works so well to give off the appearance of a traditional paper layout.

To round out my choices I have another pair by the same artist that I couldn’t choose between, LOL! Just when the caterpillar … (2) anndddd …

Just when the caterpillar (1) … by cinderella (again, both picks count as one ;P). The artistry displayed in both of these art journaling layouts is nothing short of brilliant! Seriously. Love every little detail that the artist has included in each one of her works of art! And the message is sheer perfection!

And that’s a wrap for me! I really hope you’ve found inspiration in the Standouts that I chose! I’ll see you all in the galleries again real soon! Blessings to all of you! XO
