I find Pinterest to be a great source for jumpstarting my creativity. When I'm in a scrappy rut (or just crunched for time), I search Pinterest and always find something that inspires my next project or creation. I especially like searching for images that are all about composition. Here is an image that inspired the layout that I have to share with you today...
And here's my twist on it...
I started by printing my photos in a few different (square) sizes. I found several pieces of patterned paper from the Open Book collection that complimented my photos and cut them into the same sized squares as the photos.
Next, I cut the patterned paper squares in half diagonally and placed them around my photos and added several different embellishments from the Open Book collection on and around the triangles.
I printed my journaling from my computer, cut it into thin strips, and added it underneath the photo of my daughter throwing leaves into the air.
This next image I found on Pinterest inspired a simple card I created using items from the Open Book collection...
I layered several of the scrap pieces of patterned paper from my layout above as a base for my card, which is a great way to use leftovers! I added a few triangle shapes that point toward the chipboard "love you" sentiment form the Open Book collection and placed a few gold glitter hearts on top of the stitched triangles.
My layout and card came together easily with a little help from my Pinterest search. Be sure and follow the Crate Paper Pinterest Boards to help inspire your next layout or project. Thanks for stopping by today!
Love these! The triangles look amazing. :)
