Rubber Ducky - left page - Project Idea

Cheers

I agree that the sanding doesn't really fit in with the rest, but other than that, I think it's a very good LO! The colors are great, and I love the title. And of course the photos are adorable! You could maybe put something in the upper-right corner - how about a rubber ducky sticker or small photo?

I love the photo placements. I kinda agree with the rest. I think the sanded pic looks kinda out of place in relation with the other 2 photos. I love the sanding technique by the way!! I use it a lot on my beach LOs.

A bit late with my comments, but anyway...this is a good LO. I thought that the sanding tech made it look like he was surrounded by water...going with the water theme of the bath. Just my opinion. Try doing some of the other suggestions and see what you like best, but if you like the sanded pic, maybe try sanding the others a little. I'm always afraid to try new techs and I admire you for wanting to do something new!

Well it looks like I'm a late poster here, lol. I agree that the sanding doesn't really go with this lo. I use sanding normally on a rustic or grungy page. I also believe the top photo would look GREAT matted on yellow cs. These pics are SO ADORABLE!!!!!! This is a great lo, I love the way you placed the pics!

Thank you for all of your comments...I am going to change the layout and put a non-sanded photo in it's place and try matting with yellow (if I still have any left??) I find sometimes I get an idea in my head (to try sanding a photo) and then just force it instead of waiting for the "right" photo or layout. I think it is a technique that might work better on a beach photo or a more rustic layout. Thanks again...all of this encouragement and support will definately help me to be a better scrapper!

Cute photos, an certainly worth scrapping. I've always thought every day life photos are hard to capture, since usually it's things we don't think about as memories. I think the sanding is fine (I certainly am going to try it now =), but I agree with some of the others that it seems to stand out too much since only the one photo is treated that way. If you wanted to include a lot of the bath pictures on the 2-page spread, you could always use one of those flip books that can be attached to the page protector.

Awww what a cutie patootie! I think the lo is darling and I love the blue and yellow and how you did the title! I have to agree that the sanding on the pic doesn't really go with the whole lo. It seems somewhat out of place to me. Everything else is crisp/sharp and clean. I think matting that picture w/yellow is a great idea :)

Hiya :) and might I add - "awwwwww" lovely pictures and definitely worth a scrap in my opinion! I think the problem with the sanding on this pic is that it doesn't really fit in with the rest of the layout...nothing else on it appears 'worn around the edges.' I agree matting in yellow would look good and seen as the main photo is so close to the two smaller ones I'd be inclined to have them lined up more... so that bottom right corner of the main photo is basically touching the top left of the smaller pic. To do that you might need to enlarge one of (or all of) the photos. Do you know what I mean? Kind of like colour blocking, except with your pictures... I also particularly like the yellow duck on the next page, 3 of them line vertically above the two smaller pics would look cool!

I really like how you did the title. Double matted always looks nice. But I have to agree I would mat the main photo. If you wanted to fill up the page, I would suggest matted photos, and slant them then you could put rubber in one corner and ducky in the opposite corner on the bottom half of the page. Just a thought.

The photos are so adorable. I do think maybe the sanding distracts from his adorable little face. I think a very clean line like the 2 smaller pix would look great. Maybe try matting the main photo in yellow to make it pop more. I like the BH Sketch here. TFS
