Love it! I read the suggestion about moving the "Sunshine" up and the block of photos down but I personally like this as is because you've balanced the symmetry with the off-symmetrical pp in the background. It reminds me a bit of my old slide sheets--neat effect with that.
I absolutely love the colors with this LO, they go so well with the title. Looks like everyone had a great time. Love the journaling and the PP's, great job.
Love the photo board!! And the simple background makes sure it the focal feature?! The words in the middle look great and the heading is very inventive. I like how you've gone around it with the pen so it doesnt get lost!! Not sure that i'd change anything!!
What a bright & fun LO! These colors are a departure for you but they fit the page perfectly. LOVE the use & placement of all those pics, fabulous collection of images. Great how you have "family FUN friends;" like Brenda, I love the emphasis on friends. Love those rounded corners too. This is fantastic as is but do like Tiff's idea of having "Good Day" where it is, moving the whole block of pics down & having "Sunshine" across the top. Barring that, I could see something SIMPLE (a single swirl doodle/rub-on maybe? a small graphic something...?) in the space between the "G" & the bottom left of the page, & again between the "S" & the top right of the page, just to fill those spaces w/ added interest. This LO definitely brightened my day, glad you had a blast!
Melissa! Good day is right! You guys had a huge crowd over. No wonder you were a little stressed about it. It looks like it turned out beautifully, as did this LO! I love the feeling that the color convey. Absolutely complements the subject and title (which is perfect, naturally!) You did an awesome job of fitting all the pictures, some journaling and some funsies in too. I love it the way it is, but if I had to suggest something, I would suggest moving the whole block of pics to the bottom right and the have the title in an "L" shape with "good day" where it is (maybe a little lower), but "sunshine" across the top. However, I love it the way it is. It is an awesome response to the challenge and I am glad that it gave you a way to showcase these fun pictures. BTW, I am sure my invite got lost in the mail. I had my cole slaw ready and everything. Next time, just email me, okies? Okies!
Love the rounded corners. Have to agree with Bren... These are not typical colors for you - great job stepping out of your comfort zone. The title and jornaling are decorative yet simple and readable. Also like the way you shadowed the center subtitle tag. I really like multiple photo LO's!
Hi Melissa! The complimentary colors look so great together. I lovelovelove the block of photos and the larger rounded corners! I love the journaling and around the block and the opposite color titling. Delish, delish :)
Wow! I did not expect these colors from you. They are bright, but a nice change as they go well together. I love the pp letters, the font is so old school, like you'd see on a Beatles cover. I also love the Friends Fun Family with the emphasis on Fun. Great use of the rub-ons to add even more interest to such vibrant photos. I especially love that you used 12 pics! I also like the journaling all the way around the photo block. Now, I can see how tough this must have been to use so many pics, and try to stay true to the rule of thirds. However, a grid comes across as a little static. Yet, I don't have a better idea of how to arrange them, right now. As for the solid cs blocks, I think it would be cool to cut the yellow into a curve where it meets the blue, so that it resembles the sun against a sky. I also think it might be cool to arrange Good Day and Sunshine so that they curve around the corners of the page.
This is my LO for the Bealtes Challenge. The idea for the LO came from a LO I saw in an old Simple Scrapbooks mag. Journaling reads: June 09, 2007 - At the last minute we decided to have a barbecue for all our friends and family. I was nervous about entertaining on such a large scale, but everything turned out great! Everyone loved the food and we all had a blast!!!
