Hi friends! It’s Amber and I’m so happy to be up on the Crate Paper blog today sharing a fun double layout project! I had never done a double page layout before so it was refreshing to try something new when it comes to 12x12 layouts.
I decided to document two similar photos. They match nicely because they were taken on the same day and they capture the same floral arrangement. I wanted the two layouts to also have some matching similarities, but to also be different as well.
To start, I picked two of my favorite patterned papers. Then I mounted both of my photos of the same yellow floral patterned paper. On the pink paper layout, I decided to incorporate elements from the rainbow paper. I trimmed some of the rainbow stripes and adhered those down onto the top left corner of the pink paper. Then I trimmed a strip of the light wood grain paper and stuck that strip onto the bottom edge of the pink paper. I then started adding my ephemera pieces and cardstock stickers! My favorite addition is probably that lovely pink fabric bow.
On the rainbow paper layout, I wanted the rainbow stripes to be well seen. So I stuck my photo down toward the left side of the paper. I put it at a slight angle and then added my ephemera and stickers at angles moving downward as well. The “grow like a wildflower” piece was perfect for this photo! As a finishing touch, I added strips of washi tape to each side edge of the layout.
I really like how these layouts turned out because even though they look different at first glance, their colors, elements, icons, and photos are cohesive and match. They will look gorgeous side by side in an album, that’s for sure! I definitely may try to use this technique in the future. This is a great idea for documenting multiple photos from the same day or place.
I hope you enjoyed this double page layout! Have a beautiful day!
