The monochromatic scheme in Vanessa’s layout is stunning. The hues of blush and rose gold adds warmth and I love how she uses a variety of fonts and played with the scale to achieve balance and interest. Vanessa used the “here” wordart to create a custom journal card and added the “on my desk” stamp to a photo of her (gorgeous) hand lettering project in progress.

Leontien used the “home” wordart – the yellow really makes the page pop yet doesn’t detract at all from the photo. Masterful!

Vellum strips? Yes please!  Azzari printed the home, here and destination wordart on vellum and cut them into strips to adorn 4×6 pocket pages. I love the way the vellum looks against the kraft and the blush/gold paper. Vellum is a great way to add depth and dimension yet still maintain a clean, minimalist look.

One photo, lots of white space, carefully chosen type and embellishment(s). To me, this is a “quintessential Laura” page (and why I’ve been in love with her pages since waaaaaay back in the days). Laura used the “love” wordart to title her layout. I love that she added a wood veneer heart to the tail end of the wordart.

Tina takes the *best* from where I stand photos. This one is a series from her recent trip to Portland. I love that she used the quote/box design element from a catalog (newsprint?) page to frame her photo. Brilliant!  She also used the “destination” wordart to create the title page for this album. To read more about her process, check out this post on her blog.

This year Kelly is creating all of her project life spreads in digital format. Her plan is to print an entire year’s worth in photobook format. I’m excited every time I see a new entry from her and this one is no exception. She strageically uses a lot of white throughout to create “space” between photos. This is a great technique to use when you’re working with photos taken throughout the week, which often times means each photo has it’s own color/tone. She used the “here” wordart to embellish the scenic photo at the bottom right.

Caylee recently switched to the smaller 6×8 format and I’m loving how she’s combined the two things she loves from previous projects – photo-centric approach in her 12×12 album) and the art journaling in her Get Messy Journal. She printed the “love” and “destination” wordart on vellum and cut them out before adding it to her page. The touches of pink she added throughout her “we are here” spread is a fun play on color and I think it helps to bring out the vibrance of the greens in her photos too.

The “love” sentiment takes center stage here in May’s layout. I love the white space and the subtle touches of gold and the grey paint splotch mimic the tones of the photo!

Asali’s scenic photos are stunning!  She used the “here” and “destination” photo templates and I love how the white pops against the vibrant colors of the sky.

If you follow Leena on instagram, you will know that she often shares photos of the amazing meals she’s having. Scrolling through her instagram feed always makes me hungry!  I love that food is prominently featured in this layout.  The way she used the “we are here” stamp on her location shot is exactly how I envisioned it to be used and the geotag sticker above it is the perfect finishing touch!

Alexis’ layout perfectly captures the fun playfullness of taking selfies. By converting the photos to a neutral sepia tone, she’s able to really integrate a lot of color and patterns to her layout design without detracting from the photo.

Brenda’s portraits of her children are absolutely stunning. This is another great example of how a black and white photo allows you to play up color in the layout design.
