When In Doubt, KISS - Keeping Layouts Simple

May 13, 2009

jhi_4x6-brushset_xmasbrdrs_lo_150So many times, when we are creating layouts for our beloved photos, we feel like we have to create masterpieces. We get caught up in the pressure to create a really stunning layout to capture those special memories, and forget that sometimes (and even alot of times!) less is more.

As a way to help you remember, I’m going to start a series on KISS layouts - Keep It Simple, Silly. (I know, usually you hear that phrase with another word for the second S, but we don’t use that word in our house. lol) In this series, I’ll show you my simple layouts, explain any special techniques I’ve used, and give you my thoughts on why I wanted to keep the layout simple.

I’ll start with this layout from Disney World. Have you ever noticed that photos of Cindarella’s Castle are almost always spectacular? I thought this one was, and really wanted it to stand out on my layout. I doctored it a bit in Lightroom, and I really loved the way the blue of the turrets matched the blue of the sky almost perfectly. I thought those colors would really stand out on a white background, but I also wanted this layout to have some of the ethereal feel of Fantasy and princesses and elegance. ScrapSimple Paper Templates: Downtown to the rescue! These were the perfect thing to add that touch to my layout without overwheming it. To see a larger version of the layout, click on the layout itself to be taken to its location in my Scrap Girls Gallery.

When I layered the paper templates on my layout, I simply changed the Blending Mode to Luminosity to retain the greyscale look. I layered a second one and didn’t change it at all, to keep the black tones black. How easy was that! I then added my frame, applied a Style to it so that it would stand out a bit, and then I was done!

I only used four products on this layout - a perfect example of less being more.

Life’s Canvas Paper Biggie

For those that are unfamiliar with this challenge, sketches are basic outlines of a layout showing suggested placement of the photos, embellies, papers, and text. Feel free to follow the sketch as designed or change things around as you wish. A few hours before the chat, I’ll share the sketch link and give you an example layout. You may complete your own page before, during or after the chat – no time limits here! Hope to see you there for frolicking, silliness, and fun. And, oh, did I mention, there will be a prize!

There’s Nothing Like A Roughed Up Piece of Paper

April 24, 2009

I’m a die-hard digi scrapper. Before I became a die-hard digi scrapper, however, I was a die-hard paper scrapper, and I still have the stash of paper to prove it. And boy am I glad I do, because that stash of paper has allowed me to create all kinds of wonderful textures for my digi scrapped pages.

jhi_sspaper_washedworn_mktg_150There’s nothing like taking a clean, smooth sheet of paper and working all kinds of magic on it to see what kind of new, grungy texture I can create. What shall I do with it today? Shall I wet it, and wring it out and see what it looks like? Shall I peel the top layer of fibers back to create wonderful, scruffed up looks. Shall I rough up the edges a bit, to let the white core show through? Or my latest creations, let’s fold or scrunch up some papers, stick them in the pockets of jeans and jackets and send them through the washer and dryer! What fun!

jhi_sspaper_washedworn_lo_300The real magic happens, however, when I start adding the papers to my layouts, combining them with other ScrapSimple Paper Templates or background papers to create new and beautiful looks. I wanted a more subtle look for this layout, so I kept the ScrapSimple Paper Template: Washed and Worn (the top paper) a solid color, tinting it a very light green. I then used one of my ScrapSimple Paper Templates: Scrubbed Raw in combination with a background paper to create a sweet frame around the top paper. I wanted to keep this layout simple, to match the simplicity of a boy and his bubble, so I just added a few more embellishments and some word art and called it done.

Now, what’s next? Hmm….Ro was speculating about stones and a creek. That could be interesting!

Scrap Girls products used in this layout:

ScrapSimple Paper Template: Washed and Worn
ScrapSimple Paper Templates: Scrubbed Raw
Weekend Getaway Paper Super Mini
Urban Love Collection Biggie
ScrapSimple Embellishment Templates: Through the Viewfinder 4×6 Frames
ScrapSimple Embellishment Templates: Threaded
Assemble Your Own Zoom Pages: Scenic Route
