It is often difficult to feature multiple
photos in a layout without compromising the aesthetic appeal of
your page. This layout shows how grouping your photos together
in a symmetric design can prevent your page feeling overcrowded
and how co-ordinating paper designs can be used to complement
them. |
|
Use your two sheets of tan cardstock as
your background. Cut your Chatterbox Mini Loft Bias Plaid Cardstock
in half. Adhere one half along the bottom of
your left-hand page and the other half along the top of your
right-hand page. Adhere your green ribbon across the join on
both pages.
|
|
Select the photo you wish you use for your
left-hand page and set it aside. |
|
Now focus on your right-hand page. Crop
your photos to size. You can use as many photos as you like
and cut them to any size you like, but keep in mind that you
wish to organise them all into a rectangle. Use pieces of Chatterbox
Loft Soft Flowering Vine Paper to fill out your rectangle. |
|
When you have decided on your arrangement
of photos and pieces of patterned paper, round the top
right-hand corner of the piece going in the top right-hand
corner. Also round the bottom right-hand corner of the piece
going in the bottom right-hand corner. When everything is
ready, adhere it all in place. |
|
Your right-hand page is now complete. If you
wish, you can add journaling along the bottom of this page,
perhaps with a brown pen. |
|
It is now time to return to the left-hand
page. The aim is to extend your rectangle onto this page. Return
to the photo you set aside for this page and crop it to size.
Round the top left-hand corner. Adhere it to the right side of
your page making sure the top is inline with the top of your
rectangle on the right-hand page. Fill out your rectangle with a
piece of Chatterbox Loft Soft Flowering Vine Paper,
remembering to round the bottom left-hand corner. |
|
To create your title, use an alphabet
template or font downloaded from the internet to transfer the
main letters of your title (in my case, 'Memories' and 'Zoo')
onto the Chatterbox Loft Soft Flowering Vine Paper and
cut them out. Ink the edges with leaf green ink. Once dry,
adhere to the left of your photo. Use brown Junkitz alphabet
rub-ons to fill in the minor words of your title. |
|
By grouping your photos together you have
featured five photos, if not more, on your page without making
it feel cluttered. The clean lines keep it neat and draws
attention to the photos. The co-ordinated backgrounds further
enhance your photos by complementing the colours and pulling
everything together. |
