Title - Happy Birthday Daddy
Layout Inspiration - Scrapbooking Goal
Design Inspiration - OnlineWorkshop
The Stashbusters Anonymous workshop started a couple of weeks ago, and I'm hoping to complete at least one layout based on each of the twelve challenges. The first challenge was to create a layout using a repetition of geometric shapes. I based the design of my layout on Aly Dosdall's example, replacing the hexagons she used with squares.
As I've mentioned previously, one of my goals this year is to scrap this year's photos and stories during the year, so I flipped through my 2014 storage binder and found two photos that I thought would work perfect on this layout. I used scraps from my blue scrap file for all the squares and copied Aly's border idea of adding faux stitching around the edge (with a white pen).
I'll be sharing more layouts inspired by this workshop over the next few weeks. Are any of you taking this class? Have you been inspired by the challenges?

Love all the background squares....a great way to use up stash.
ReplyDeleteLove the balloon used as a indication of the birthday year!
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely to see all those blue scraps so nicely pulled together
ReplyDeleteI love the pp squares! Fab job!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely colourful page - nice to see you and your Daddy together too. I like the balloon holding his age too.
ReplyDeleteI have enjoyed reading this series of posts and I really like this layout :)
ReplyDeleteI took this class previously and enjoyed it! I made my layout with hexagons because I had a new hexagon punch at the time! (Layout in my galleria at BPC). It was fun! I found it challenging to find a journaling place on this layout (and some others in this class) but that forced me to make the whole layout tell the story - like you did with the balloon. Sometime our embellishment elements have to do double duty!
