I have been really enjoying Shimelle Laine lately. Well, to be honest, ever since I first heard her on the Paperclipping Roundtable, I was a fan.
This is the first episode I listened to with Shimelle. Then, I started following
her blog. Then, I started using her work as inspiration.
Today I'm sharing some layouts that were inspired by Shimelle. One thing that totally amazes me about her is that she scrapbooks up-side-down in all of her videos. I wonder, does she always scrapbook this way? From a design perspective, it could totally work. If you don't know her already, please do check her out.
The first layout was based on
this starting point
Here is my take:
This is from my school's auction, and my friend Deborah was one of the co-chairs. The theme was Super Heroes Wanted, and she was Super Deborah that night! Love how this turned out.
Next up I have a layout i
nspired by this sketch:
Here is my take:
We got this cat canoe at the auction, and Nikko LOVES it! We laugh about the fact that he seemed to know right away that this was for him. He is always sleeping here (if not on the bed).
Finally, I used
this starting point for a two page spread.
Here is my take on this starting point.
I fussed with this quite a bit, and I like how it turned out. I am going to cut a slit in the page protector so that you can open the card (which is on the far right) and read the inside of the card.
More soon! Thanks for reading.
