ok... so I'm pretty sure I just made the FLATTEST page ever!!! seriously.. I'm not a flat scrapper at all. I LOVE pop dots, textures and usually tons of bling or buttons that make my pages rather bulky when I actually put them into my albums. But seeing as how all my scrappy stuff is packed up in boxes and ready to be moved, yesterday I had reached my breaking point with stress... tired of packing and putting together boxes. So I gave myself a time out to scrap!!! and I have to say, I came back very refreshed and ready to go. Thank goodness.
So here is the FLAT page I came up with. I just pulled out a kit and used what I had in the bag:
The pictures were taken last Friday at the Dodger game that we went to and had fun at. The kids loved it, esp Austin he was glued to that game!!!! It's really fun to watch him get ultra excited over it.
I added some doodling and washi tape on the page. I used two pieces of chipboard which were my only pop outs on the page!!!! I also covered up some of the people that were caught in the pictures in front of us with the Jillibean label strips, cuz well, they didn't need to be in the picture.. lol
I added lots of layered to make my page look less flat:

Ohhhhhhhh I am in love!!! I loveeeeeeeee the bingo cards, the camera paper...just love it all!!!!
ReplyDeleteLoved it Wendi! So glad you took a little time out to scrap!

ReplyDeletefantastic page girlfriend :)

nice job, see flat isn't soooo bad:)
ReplyDeleteLove it! I am eyeing your washi tape. I have a thing for it you know:) Hope you had a nice 4th of July and good luck with the move. Hang in there Girl!
ReplyDeleteYour page is adorable. I love your doodles and the way you added dimension. Me? I get excited every time I make a flat page. I think immediately of how nicely it will lay in my album. No bulky brads to dent the protectors, no Thickers that will later end up at the bottom of the protector, etc. I love the look of dimension, but a flat page makes me happy. I embrace it when I can. :)
ReplyDeleteYou sure did embrace flat and create a fantastic layout!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the move.
