When planning the July cover, our team searched the inbox for layouts that evoked the feeling of summer. We sorted through gorgeous layouts showing all of the joys of warm weather play, but ultimately Janneke's simple tribute to strawberries captured the most votes. We love her use of white space, multiple photos, and that extra special strawberry detail. Congratulations, Janneke! Enjoy your prize package.
Mmmm … Strawberries … by Janneke Smit. Supplies: Paper: My Mind’s Eye, Cardstock: Canson, Transparency: Fancy Pants, Bling: Heidi Swapp, Button:Dress It Up, Color Pencils: Around the Block, Fonts: Arno Pro, Arial.
Design notes: A premade transparency makes a quick and beautifulembellishment. I simply added some bling to the flower centers, and a strawberry button (after cutting off the shank). Some vertical lines made with colored pencils draw the viewer’s eyes into the main photo. I printed the title and journaling directly onto the cardstock.
Journaling: the perfect spring treat - especially when eaten outside - ona warm and sunny day - 04*26*08
