Hi all, Carolyn here to bring you this week’s challenge.
I know there are beautiful layouts out there with 1 photo on a page and tons of beautiful decorations, but I want to challenge you to do a page with 4 or more photos. This is often difficult for me as I tend to put them all in a block formation and they are not too exciting. Not that there is anything wrong with blocking, but there are so many different ways to get your photos on the page. I always have tons of photos from vacations and cannot just do one on each page else I will never get them in an album.
Here are a few ideas for you to mix things up a bit:
1) Use a template – Trixie Scraps has tons of fun templates with more than one photo.
2) Scraplift – find a layout with many photos in the gallery that you love and copy the composition.
3) Just start plonking those photos on the page – overlap, make some bigger and smaller, crop some into circles or squares…go crazy! You may just love the result.
Last, but not least, add the papers and elements that will “finish” your layout and give it the look you love. An alpha for the title is fun if you have space too.
Your challenge: create a layout with 4 or more photos using 80% or more Trixie Scraps products.
Here are some templates for inspiration:
And a few layouts from me to inspire you. Feel free to scraplift any of these for the challenge:
