Hello everyone!
I'm sharing this post over on the Crate Paper blog today...
I find that Pinterest is a great source to jumpstart my creativity. When I'm in a scrappy rut (or just crunched for time), I search Pinterest and always find something that inspires my next project or creation. I especially like searching for images that are all about composition. Here is an image that inspired the layout that I have to share with you today...
And here's my twist on it...
I started by printing my photos in a few different (square) sizes. I found several pieces of patterned paper from the Open Book collection that complimented my photos and cut them into the same sized squares as the photos.
Next, I cut the patterned paper squares in half diagonally and placed them around my photos and added several different embellishments from the Open Book collection on and around the triangles.
I printed my journaling from my computer, cut it into thin strips, and added it underneath the photo of my daughter throwing leaves into the air.
This next image I found on Pinterest inspired a simple card I created using items from the Open Book collection...
I layered several of the scrap pieces of patterned paper from my layout above as a base for my card, which is a great way to use leftovers! I added a few triangle shapes that point toward the chipboard "love you" sentiment form the Open Book collection and placed a few gold glitter hearts on top of the stitched triangles.
My layout and card came together easily with a little help from my Pinterest search. Be sure and follow the Crate Paper Pinterest Boards to help inspire your next layout or project.
Thanks for stopping by today!
