Hi everyone! Heather Leopard is here with a layout that is most definitely NOT lacking color. Not even sure I can consider the bits of white as white space and you know what?!?! It sums up our colorful rodeo / carnival day just perfectly. Come take a look to see just what I'm talking about.
The Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo is a 3-week long adventure of which we usually just partake in just one day but it's one really long, fun, colorful day! Colorful because of the culture, the people, the actual carnival, the list goes on and on. I thought a colorful background would be the only way to document it and do it justice.
To get started, I honed in one one specific patterned paper. This rainbow inspired paper. The only thing is I thought it needed more color so I looked through my threads and was elated to find that I had matching colors already in my stash. I gave my sewing machine a workout with a mix of wonky stitched lines and zig zags. I went crazy and it was fun!
Then, I turned to the new Florence Alphabet Stickers and found a lovely rainbow of coordinating colors!
Next, I highlighted 15 of the many activities that we did that day. I used the Florence Alphabet Stickers to write these out, placing the stickers on color coordinating lines. I added an acrylic word because it was the perfect word in the right shade and honestly I think it helps the flow of the layout.
Then, I used various sized photos that show many of the activities listed on the page.
I kept embellishments to a minimum since there's so much going on with the background. There's obviously no space to journal directly to the page so I will be going back and adding some journal strips.
Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you have a great day!
