Bring Me Sunshine by Rachel Burgess

Inspiration “I just love this photograph! It was captured recently on a trip to the States with eight other members of my family. Although it was only April it felt like summer to us. I love the character and energy this photo expresses and the memories connected with it, but most of all I love to see that blue, blue sky.”

Holiday Fun by Missy Neal

Inspiration “This layout was inspired by a recent holiday visit with my nieces. Little Caterina was all smiles as she played in the pool and fountain. I just loved how the bright colours of the paper coordinated so well with her little suit.”

Technique “I love the use of ‘white space’ and have kept my design all in one corner. To bring the layout together, I drew freehand lines around the outer cardstock, the scallops and the buttons.”

Inspiration “You’ve just returned from holiday and have a ton of photography – how can you scrapbook all of the shots of the buildings and architectural features? This layout incorporates four of these photos, plus journaling about the trip. I used a colour scheme that was all-American, but would work equally well for a British flag theme.”
