Using Shapes

hmmm maybe I should have thought of a better title? well you will see what I mean in a minute.

First just a quick hello - this is my first time posting on the WIP blog and I am so exciting - lots of inspiration here! So I hope I can try to inspire you as well! (on with my post)


I know we all are inspired by the photos we take when making a layout. Sometimes I am inspired to bring in the "theme" a bit more. For example...

This layout with circles that help to represent the bubbles that she is blowing.


Or this one with all of the stitching -- it is a layout about the first dress that I made for my daughter - so I naturally sewed on the layout to continue the theme.

And swim -- well that was an easy one - with the blue paper I though of waves - and then added a yellow sun for fun!

And I guess I was on a sun kick because then I have this one -- with another sun --to emphasize the summer part of it.



And one of my favorite -- the bulls eye to represent target. I added a title in the bullseye.

I don't always do this - but it is a technique that I like to do when it fits the mood of the layout. Makes it a bit more fun right?

Well thanks for popping in...
