Today I saw that Shop Our Stash was having an Opposite's Day Challenge. You are asked to
make something that's opposite your usual style.
As a lot of you my style varies I like simple and clean with a lot of pictures but I have been working on layers and textures and one picture on a page, etc.
So I wasn't sure what I would do but then I remember a sketch I saw on Let's Capture Our Memories. When I saw it I thought hmmmm I've never done anything like this and wasn't sure I would tackle it. So I thought I would give it a try. My photos are almost always 4 x 6 or 2 x 3 rectangles or maybe squares once in awhile.
I hunted through pictures to find something that would work to punch out with a hole punch and found this cute stack of birthday paper.
I added some letters for the title and made smaller punched circles of cupcakes.
I cut out the 3 to represent Brittanys third birthday.
Another think I did which was new is I see people with circles around there pictures to highlight one and I'm not sure how they do it but I did mine with Stickles.
Now that I have tried it I really like this layout and method of
punching out pics and would try it again.
This is the sketch I used from Let's Capture Our Memories Sketch 121
Going to keep this sketch and try it again.
Love your take on this layout! Nice paper choices! Very nice walk outside your comfort zone! Thanks for taking our Opposite Challenge this week at Shopping Our Stash!
