Get into the

FEEL OF SUMMER

with a bright, colourful page.

 

by Adrienne Lubbe

 

 

 

 

Sizes of photos used: One 15 x 20 cm vertical enlargement

                                           One 13 x 18 cm vertical enlargement

                                           One 10 x 15 cm standard jumbo photo

 

Matting:  Mat all the photos on one piece of large matting cardstock. You can leave the matting slightly larger than normal because the photos are large and bold, so they are not overwhelmed by the larger matting size.

 

Paint chip: Get hold of  paint chips from your local paint shop. Stamp onto the paint chip with your choice of stamp using Staz-on ink so that it does not smudge.

 

Postage stamp: Our local postage stamps have some amazing designs. Use them on your pages as embellishments.

 

Chipboard shapes: The chipboard swirls at the bottom of the page were covered with patterned paper.  See here how to neatly cover chipboard. Lay the chipboard swirls out on the page to see how they will overlap. Trace the portion where the one lying on top overlaps the bottom swirl, cut the bottom section of the swirl out using a craft knife. That way the top one will slot into the bottom one without creating extra bulk on the page.

 

Brads: See this hand hint for the placing of the brads and then the flattening of the brads

 

Titles: Add titles with rub-ons, hand lettering and a number plate.
