Nashville - Once our future home... (Title Page) - Project Idea

Cheers

What a great memory to scrap. And I love the urban feel to this page despite the journaling about moving to such a "country" locale. Nice play on words, for lack of a better turn of phrase. Very cool.

Sharon, you know I'm a big fan of your collaging style, but let me reiterate how freaking cool it is! I love your use of mixed media and how you create your own additions, like coloring a block of vellum and scrawling a black border, then placing it over the car rental piece. At the risk of sounding like a copycat, I also love the classifieds vellum (it's perfect for your subject!), the journaling and how some words are underlined, the ascending title, the fibrous cream paper, the inking and torn edges laid over black cs, the crumpled map, the screws, and that awesome embossed copper N (which you must teach us about)! The roses I don't dig, though. Sorry. I would like to see a little more copper somewhere in the form of a piece of mesh. Too bad the screws weren't copper. I'd love to learn more about why you didn't end up in Nashville. This lo has such a gritty New York feel to it, that it's no wonder you ended up there, instead. I'm adding this to my faves and will have to scraplift.

This is great for a title page. I'm loving the use of an actual map here. I'm a little thrown off by the rose pp... Not sure where that fits in.

I like everything here-the N, the mats, the vellum, the roses! Great job!

I love the embossed 'N' and the maps. Thanks for sharing it because I really really like this!

Wow, there is so much to this LO i love. First, the N. definitely a cool effect. Then, the newspaper.. which i didn't noticed until I zoomed in.. but looks totally cool. The map, which just fits perfect. The memorablia of the rental car place. Just everything. I'm really not sure about the roses.. idk just how they fit completely in with it. But you totally rocked this LO

DANG, this is cool! I didn't even see the vellum classifieds until I read the comment & then zoomed in...yup, too cool! Seriously, I only know how to pull off this kind of thing digitally so, please, pretty please, share techniques & I promise to try to share digi ones in exchange ;-)

Nice layout. I love the embossed "N".

Cute. I can't imagine moving to the south (my parents moved to NC a few years ago) but it's still a cool layout.

Sharon, c'mere lemme kiss you. I think this is my favorite of yours, thus far. There are so many layers to this that I dig, literally. Let me start with the obvious, the map is perfect. What a great way to include some ephemera (for example, the rental car tab) and help convey a morsel of your past. Of course, your N rocks. Please share your technique with us. The roses are such a surprise. I wouldn't have thought to include them, but they are perfect! Also share how you did the edge between the roses and the black cardstock. Love that effect! Ok, the vellum classifieds are unbelievably genius with this LO, especially as the mat for the journaling. I love this, everything about it.
