These are just some of the pages that stood out to me using the last freebie 'I live for'. (click on the user name for full list of credits)
By teeleedee- Stunning composition. I love her stitching, it really helps stabilize the page. And the frayed piece of fabric, which adds texture.
By Amanda1201- Her blending is flawless! and her typography is great!
By nicleblanc- perfect black n white photo that adds to the unity of the page. Black n White photos are great with neutral colour schemes, it helps to soften the page. I love her creativeness with the extraction too.
By Chey- Great example of white space! Is'nt that photo, just precious!
By Keela - I love how the journaling is com-posited over the photo's white space. Yes even photos have white space!
By debsterchen - Too cool! This is a very striking layout. One because the composition is well balanced and she has used texture and the principle of dominance to add drama.
By Applechick- I absolutely love they way she tore the paper down the side like that. You'd think that it would create a disjointed look, but by adding staples and 'tucking' the photo behind the paper. She has created depth and stability. Bravo!
By brittanylane - I love the subtle blending of paper here. Gorgeousness!
By ThereseRydstrom- This is a great example of a well balanced layout. The trick to balancing a layout is to almost visualize a scale. If its heavy with images or elements on the right, balance it with a few items somewhere on the left. Like the title here.
By star74- stunning white space layout! another great way to add warmth to a WS layout, is to add paper with texture. It helps to create more visual interest and more dimension.
By BettyJoR - Is'nt her cat stunning? I really like the splash of yellow behind her cat. Don't be afraid to add colour to a layout that is mostly neutral. It can really compliment the colour scheme. Play around with it!
Thank you every one for using the supplies so beautifully, there were more I could have added! I have been blow en away by all the pages and ALL the comments! Thanks!
Heres a page I did a few days a go. Does'nt my girl look like a doll!

Heres the preview for this weeks Freebie
Your Heart
And here's your download link!
I'm thinking about going and getting a flat iron plate today! To make Roti's in. I'm ashamed to admit this, but I have'nt made one in 4ish years! I know I'm not a very good Indian! I make curries though, at least once a week. But I don't have the time to make Roti's from scratch. I should start, because Noah and Jacinda loves them, & I think I should stop depriving my husband! LOL! I hope I can still make them round.. we'll see.
Catch ya all later! Enjoy using my freebie, and please link me to your layouts, I love to see them :)
HUGS!
Vinnie...this is gorgeous!
That photo of your little girl is absolutely PRECIOUS!
Thanks for the wonderful freebie!
