On Our Cover

Pit Crew

We fell in love with this fabulous page by Tanyia.  From the photos to the design, it definitely rocks!  The bold colors, interesting embellishments, and strong use of black drew us in.  On a second look, we noticed fun details like the chicken wire, glitter, and funky mixed stitches.  How absolutely cool!  We are thrilled to feature this layout on our cover.

You, too, might see your layout or card on the cover, but you have to submit first! All items submitted to article calls are looked at, and the top eye-catchers are chosen by our Editors and put in a voting poll for our crew to select the cover winner. So get those layouts, cards and projects in everyone! Each month, the cover winner receives a prize package from our sponsors filled with yummy supplies.

Take a second look at our front cover.

Design Notes: This layout was just about celebrating the fun side of my little one ... so I just had fun with it. I had to let go a little and just put stuff on the page and layer and layer and then layer some more. I did have to move things around a bit until I found a place I liked, but I just had fun with it and let it flow ... and it just worked! I shadowed the elements individually in Photoshop as well to help with their realism.
