Recently I had this Xmas themed layout published in
AUSTRALIAN SCRAPBOOK IDEAS - Issue 17
on sale now .
'TASTE'
My approach
to this layout
I adore this
pic of my Grand daughter eating strawberries on Xmas day a few years ago.
I wanted to
give a Christmas feel to the page without typical Christmas colors .
Pink and black are my choice, and the white
ink brushed around the edges of the black card and the fine fibres of muslin
suggests soft snow to me.
The circles are a graphic interpretation of the
berries and the handmade flowers to me represent our table setting where I
always have beautiful flowers as a centre piece .
I definitely prefer
non-traditional colors at Christmas
time.
hope you buy this mag it is full of inspiration .
Here is another of 3 projects I created for the magazine - ISSUE 17
hope I have inspired you in some way
