Saturday Scraplift: Structure and Softness

Happy Saturday! It’s time for another Saturday Scraplift and I think you are going to like this one. I am always enamored with Mirjam’s (Mielz) pages when she posts in the gallery. She just has such a soft and elegant style. Swoon. 🙂 I really loved how she used the soft colors and blending along with a subtly structured frame to draw the eye to the photo. I just really thought it was a great way to showcase her picture.

Everyone who helped out this week took this inspiration in a different direction. I love that. I love how there are so many bits of inspiration in a single page. Up first is Patsy (ptabbert) with this amazing blended design. Her initial plan went a bit off the rails, but I absolutely love where she ended up. The vintage photo, the subtle blended frame and the corner title really work well.

Stephanie (Stephanie_E) went a different direction with her spin. She extended her photo with the circle and used soft brushes in the background and included a page edge. Love the story she told. <3

Shannon (shannonroller) kept with the general design of the page and showcased a sweet blended photo of her cat. Love the watercolor feel, the scribbled frame as structure and the button details.

Valerie (nana_vg) rounds out the group with this lovely vintage page. She framed a blended photo and also trimmed her page to add an additional frame. Soft colors, blended brushes in the background and a script title pull it all together.
