Layering Embellishments on Photos

5.08.2009
It's the Everyday Moments

Here is a layout that I created using one of the past monthly scrapbooking kits from Scrapbook Circle (there are still a couple of these kits available for purchase if you like here!). To create a bit more interest on this layout I overlapped some of my journaling strips, tags and chipboard embellishments stragicly directly on top of some of my photos. I think that since my photos were already the focus, adding my embellishments right to the photos added interest without making the entire layout look too busy. It helped that in this case too I was sure to use similar colors that were found not only in my papers and my photos but in my choice of embellishments as well.

Supplies for "It's the Everyday Moments": Fancy Pants, pp, chipboard pieces and die-cuts; October Afternoon, die-cuts and letter stickers; Bazzill, cardstock Misc: buttons and twine

Great idea and I like the look! I think we were taught to NOT TOUCH the photos and you showed it can be fun.
