wow, what a unique page...Love the pin up girl. Now you have inspired me to do a page on dh's favorite muscle car! The pp you chose is perfect, and the black ricrac fits the theme of curves!
SHCG: Am I the only one to see the TWO hot pin-up girls on this layout? *wolf whistle* Brenda, curves ahead???? You ain't lyin'! I'm gonna need a cold shower after this layout! *whew* J'adore everything about this layout: the title, the color, the car, the label, the staples, the ric rac, the triangles, the hottie in yellow, oh yeah, and your pinupgirl art too. This layout is fun, flirty and it rocks. Also, I totally agree with Kay here: the blacks of the triangles and ric rac create such a pleasing visual triangle that makes this amazingly harmonious. It is superb, dahhhhhling!
SHCG: Bren, I love this LO! And I too love the colors and the way you were able to put them together with the photo and the embellies! The pinup girl is a perfect touch ant the photo on the bottom right corner is a creative touch.
I love that even your shirt is yellow. How fun is that? The half naked chick dressed in yellow is so daring and so you to have on that layout. I think I would have pointed the photo corners up on the bottom right hand page to draw the eye towards those photos. I also would have made the title mat a funky shape. But those are nitpicking critiques. Love it Bren!
I love how the black label makes the triangle rule with the two pieces of black ricrac.
WOW! WOW! All yellow, all awesome! I love, love the photos! The pin-up girl is so Bren! So is the little heart/lock sticker and the title! I love all the yellow, the ricrac, the little arrows pointing down, the signs-oh, I love it all!Awesome page!
SHCG: There is just nothing wrong with this one. I LOVE the photo through the louvers!! I'm a '57 Chevy Belaire girl myself, though. All the elements work so well together here. I love how you have the chevrons moving down through the page. It's just a perfect LO!!
SHCG: OMG Brenda, there is so much I love about this LO I don't know where to start! I absolutely LOVE it the way it is... the topic, the photos, the pinup girl, it's just all good. :)
SHCG: There are so many things I like about this layout starting with the yellow. Great photos, pattern paper and black highlights. I have never been crazy about staples but I like them here and even want to see a few more such as crossed staples as a few photo corners. Not every corner but a 2 or 3. PS i know it's a little picky but I would trim the bottom of the white of the title so that it is even with the photo. The little bit that is poking out from behind the photo is a little distracting.
SHCG: This is so awesome Brenda, great response to the challenge! I love the color, the papers, the photos (esp the one looking thru the blinds), the embellies and the pin-up art girl (that's so you!). Great job :)
SHCG - Way to go w/ this challenge response, Brenda! So cool to hear that I had a hand in inspiring you to take a 2nd look at yellow & old pp - you definitely took those ideas & ran w/ 'em! Marvelous pics, dahling. Terrific title & tie-in to the car's, your & the pinup's curves. Cool how the ricrac & arrow-y elements are on opposite page sides of each other. Neato overall placement. Love the fresh take on the old pp & street signs. Groovy all the dimension/enhancement added to the pinup & title. Love the M Johnson sticker. Thumbs up on the label maker label. I'm glad you explained the lack of journaling, cuz you know I would've been on you for that, LOL. My one suggestion is, because the background/yellows are so lively & pronounced, that black inking or narrow black mattes around the photos would've given the true stars of this LO - you & the wheels - some extra added oomph. Super duper scraftin, dahling!
SHCG: Very neat page. Love the color choice and the visual elements. That phot through the blind is great! The only thing I wish is that the title were slightly larger.
SHCG: I love what you did here Brenda. The yellow is perfect for this page to match with your clothing and the car. I absolutely adore that bottom right picture. Such a neat-o effect!
This is for the SHCG BWC #21-Go Monochromatic! The pictures of the '55 Chevy Nomad are from an annual local classic car show that we enjoyed this summer. There is no additional journaling because this will be a page in a series for an album I plan to make for this event.
Thanks to Marlene (scrappygal8), I may go monochromatic for the whole album.
Also, thanks to Sharon (blushpea) for helping me to see yellow and old pp in a different light. She used the black/yellow squares pp in response to the same challenge. The checkered pp and road signs are from a very old stash!
Shout out to the SHista who gave me the Marah Johnson epoxy sticker. The pin-up girl is art from the web. To achieve a shadow effect, I put her on pop dots, and I layered two flower rain dot stickers to the printed flowers in her hair. These effects and the silver gel pen highlights on the title letters show up better irl. Sorry for the bad scan and stitch job.
