LOTW | Stephanie

Our Layout of the Week, Rad, comes from our member Stephanie (username stephaniebryan). Our community loved her use of the Bluegrass Farm kit and large photo to create this adorable layout. To keep up with Stephanie and see more of her work, be sure to follow her here at SC and her blog!

I created this layout for the newest issue of Jot Magazine. The theme was “Mega Photos” and I knew I wanted to use this awesome photo of my son. I don’t have access to a large format printer, so I printed my photo as an 8.5x11, which I think looks nice on a larger background. Before I added it to my page, I ran it through my typewriter and added my journaling. Since the photo does not fill the whole 12x12 space, I trimmed down a few strips of patterned paper and added them alongside my photo. My finishing touches are always a few embellishments and for this layout, I just had to use the RAD die cut from the Office Hours kit, as well as a woven patch from the Blue Grass kit. They were large enough to stand out on my page without being too distracting with my large photo. I just love the statement that larger photos make on projects. They are the perfect way to highlight a special moment or person!

Thank you all so much for choosing my layout as LOTW! It’s a true honor to be a part of this community!
