Fall Color (Little Yellow Bicycle Acorn Hollow)
Sharing more beautiful foliage from our visit to Letchworth State Park today. I built my page around the tree paper, adding in some "falling" chipboard and sticker leaves. I also used some of May Arts wonderful burlap "ribbon" for texture and natural color. In the end, I found myself without a place for journaling (!) so I had to get a bit creative. I printed the journaling on vellum and placed it right on the photo. The vellum masks the photo just enough to let the picture show through and the journaling to stand out. I was able to hide the adhesive underneath the diecut I used to frame the journaling.
How about you? What do you do when you've worked yourself into a corner and don't have a spot for what you want to say? :)

ReplyDeleteThis is GORGEOUS!!! I loveeeeeee that photo, the title on its side and loveeeeeeeee the trees in the background!!! If I don't have the room ... I take a journal tag -- fill out what I want to say... and then adhere it to the back :) Happy Halloween!!!

ReplyDeleteLisa, I seriously opened this page and gasped! I love the way you worked with those trees and the vellum spot for journaling is so clever!
ReplyDeleteFabulous LO!! Love all the layers and embellishments, and I love the vellum journaling spot too--great design!
ReplyDeleteLove, love love this-that journaling on vellum on the photo is genius! Great LO!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful layout, great idea with the vellum on top of the photo
ReplyDeleteGorgeous layout! I love the photo and all the fun fall leaves. Great way to do the journaling! I will have to remember this. If I forget to leave room for journaling, I will pull up the photo and create a pocket with it, journal on a tag and stick the tag behind the photo. It works in a pinch! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely page! I have done that more than once. I often print the journaling on cardstock that is the same colour as the background, so it doesn't take up real estate :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful page.
ReplyDeleteI like how you added the journaling.
Great fall layout...love how you journalled over the photo! Great idea! That jute ribbon is gorgeous...i am drooling over it...i love kraft and jute and twine...
ReplyDeleteVery pretty fall foilage layout.
ReplyDeleteYou did such a great job with this difficult paper. I wouldn't have known how to use this side and would have opted for side B for sure!! Very creative with the journaling. I found myself without a spot for journaling on the last layout I did!!
