My layouts for the Scrapbooking Memories Masters competition 2011

The criteria for the Scrapbooking Memories Masters competition 2011 was to create a:

1. single layout using the sketch

2. single layout must include a 7x5 photo

3. single layout, must include hidden journaling

4. double layout using the colours provided, which were orange, grey, aqua

And here are my layouts that I created for the competition. I was extrememly happy with the layouts that i created. I received an honourable mention in the masters edition of the magazine for my double layout. super happy about that.

Ok, so here is my single layout with hidden journalling. the journalling is on the rolled up piece of a page from an old novel.

Here is my single layout with a 7x5 photo.

And my layout using the sketch that they provided

APPARENTLY I CANT SHOW MY HONOURABLE MENTION LAYOUT UNTIL TWO MONTHS AFTER THE MAGAZINE IS OUT. SO I'LL POP THE PICS UP AGAIN THEN :)

For my layout I drew inspiration from the colours of the photo, green, yellow and orange. Ive really enjoyed doing double layouts lately, which is a surprise cause normally i dont like doing them. For this layout I used Kaiser paper and journal cards, string, making memories and echo park stickers and heidi swapp chipboard. I machine stitched over the title and over the words "jump, run, leap and throw".
