The Abstractionist
Here's my take on The Minimalist
I don't normally do minimalist pages so this was a challenge I've been working at this for a couple of days, as I couldn't get a look I was happy with. I do love this photo of me, as Steve managed to snap this when I wasn't looking and I love how it looks in black & white.
The main kit I used was from Dawn Inskip Designs called Believe in Yourself
The second page I had to do The Free Spirit
This was fun I've never tried this style before, I thought this would be a hard style for me but I really enjoyed the process and I can see me having ago at this style again. This is our Roxy a mad pug when she was still a puppy. I cut out the image of Roxy and then added a paint effect, I blending the photo into the background paper and then added the gesso etc to give a layered look.
I used kits all from Dawn Inskip Designs: Furbabies, Life is Good, Woof, Gesso Overlays I also used the font: Rusty Bucket
Well that's the first week done, Monday we find out which are the next two styles we get to work with. Its been nice to get back into scrapbooking again its been a long time since I've done any pages due to taking a break due to a shoulder injury.
