This layout was for Artfull Crafts' July blog theme of Favourite Colours which I didn't get a chance to share last month. I used MME's Indie Chic collection which contains lovely coral and citrus colours mixed with foliage greens.
My starting point is the Adventure Bouquet paper where a colourful floral cascade dominates a quarter of the page. Photos are placed to continue the line of tumble and to lead the eye to my two- part title. A series of red and yellow pattern blocks and a row of organza blooms anchor the page and act as a balance the action happening above.
Brown in the form of the title alphas and a Kaisercraft resin flower is introduced as an accent colour. Since the photos were taken in New Zealand, a bold black and white chevron frame seemed appropriate as it mimics a traditional Maori motif. Lots of exciting things happening on the Artfull Crafts blog this week so I hope you head over and check it out.
Linking up to these parties.
Supplies : MME Indie Chic (Direction Brocade & Layered Sticker, Adventure Bouquet & Ric Rac & Brad & Label Sticker, Travel Stripes & Chipboard, Relax Title & Border Sticker), Best Creation Chipboard Alpha, Kaisercraft Resin Flower Orchid, Maya Road Organza Rose Ribbon, push pin
