F or the fi rst four years of his life, my son had never experienced a New Year’s celebration. by L I N DA H A R R I SO N I actually thought it would most likely be about four more years until he did. Boy was I was wrong. Last New Year’s Eve, not only did my son stay up to watch the ball drop in Times Square, but he continued his own celebration the next day. These fun and playful photos are from his one-man-celebration, which I had a blast scrapping. I decided to use the festive occasion of the photos to sneak in lots of what I normally don’t use on layouts about my boy: pink, purple, and bling. Here’s what I came up with to showcase this festive little dude. s supplies CARDSTOCK, Bazzill; PATTERNED PAPER, Tinkering P Ink; DIE CUT LETTERS, QuicKutz; In RHINESTONES, K & Company; R CLEAR STARS, Heidi Swapp; C GLITTER LETTER STICKERS, G Making Memories; CORNER M ROUNDER, Marvy Uchida; R FFONT, 2 peas Quirky from www.twopeasinabucket.com w easy For a quick, yet celebratory layout, I started with a basic block pattern by aligning the two photos in the center of the page. I let the remaining space (left by my photos) be my guide in deciding the width and length of my journaling block. I printed my journaling onto cardstock and used it to fi ll in the “block,” thus creating a rectangle in the center of my layout. With the journaling and photos in place, I added a strip of patterned paper to one side to bring more colour onto the page. On the opposite side of the photos, I added the title using die-cut letters and a strip of cardstock in a corresponding colour. I fi nished the layout by adding some clear stars in a row, a “countdown” using glitter number stickers, and rhinestones randomly placed throughout the layout. 34 scrapbook & cards today • winter 2008 the 3T’s • SCT detailed I changed things up a little for my detailed layout. I kept the same rectangular shape with the journaling and photos, however I double-matted them to add depth and colour. I moved the title to the photo for a more interesting look. For the journaling, I used the same journaling block, but I left out two words and enough space so I was able to fi ll in those words with glitter letter stickers. I split up the rectangular shape of the layout by adding the patterned paper strip horizontally across the page. Finally, I embellished with clear stars, rhinestones, and a glitter element that tied in the glitter letters from the journaling. expert I put the party on the page for the fi nal version of this New Year’s layout. I kept the same basic rectangle design of photos and journaling as in the fi rst two, only I moved the journaling directly onto the focal photo and placed the title on the cardstock. I increased the focus on the title by using a combination of large glitter letters and black vinyl letter stickers. The journaling was stepped up by making it part of the focal photo. Strips of the patterned paper were used to frame everything, thus surrounding all the elements in the variety of colours. I painted a chipboard swirl and added it horizontally across the page to add both movement and whimsy. The layout was fi nished off with the same clear stars, rhinestones, and the addition of a large glitter swirl.

To create this fun, blanketstitched border, I first punched holes all around the outside of the circle with a paper piercer.

For this double page layout, I applied the rule of odds by working in threes (three individual photos of the kids, three arrows, three buttons, etc.). I also stuck with three main colours (using the green the most, the blues the second most, and the grey-taupe the least). Finally, I created lots of horizontal movement across both pages by using the wide green photo block, the blue strip, the arrows, and the repeated circles along the top. live every moment by Alicia Thelin, Herriman, UT supplies ALL SUPPLIES, Stampin’Up! 56 scrapbook & cards today • winter 2008 leave adequate room for white space— approximately one third of your layout should be “open” or restful space beautiful pages can be created in simply less time and with simply less “stuff.” Take Vivian’s layout on the previous page, for example. your layout repeat design elements use minimal embellishments—embellishments should be purposeful, and help to tell your story 6 7 create a defi ned space for your journaling 8 9 incorporate “clean” lines and straight angles 10 try to choose 3 main colours and use them apply the rule of “odds”—the eye likes things in 1’s, 3’s, or 5’s create a visual triangle to help lead the eye around the page proportionately with one another—i.e. use 1 colour the most; another the 2nd most; and the 3rd one the least the 3T’s • SCT When you have a great photo (or a group of photos) that visually have a lot going for them (lots of colour, detail, or beautiful simplicity) you really don’t need much more. This is where white space comes in. In this case, it allows my photo to take centre stage, and, at the same time, it gives the eye a visual rest.

G reta created this stunning snowfl ake frame using chipboard snowfl akes from Maya Road and a wide variety of mediums and techniques. She used cool blues, silvery hues, and small hits of contemporary black to create an elegant and harmonious backdrop that speaks wonder- fully to the season. This frame would make the perfect gift, but, on second thought, it may be just too pretty to give away! SCT Interested in making this gorgeous project? Please visit our website for the complete instructions, and, check out our blog on Tuesday, December 16th when Greta will share her tutorial with us!
