"Walk Through the Gardens" by Paije Potter - Pattern #582
Hello
Welcome to Wednesday's Snap Fix!
Do you ever struggle to find the right colors to make your photos pop?
I sure do! Sometimes, trying to pick my colors makes my whole scrapbooking process come to a screeching halt.
If you have ever felt this way, take a look above at Paije's layout. She chose Fields 12x12, a light distressed style grid paper - perfect with her photos taken at a historic site. It's also a lighter color than her photos which really makes the foliage stand out. She added to the old world feel by picking an ivory distressed patterned paper. Then to highlight her main
focal photo, and two side photos, she chose to mat them with a green that is slightly darker than the Fields Grid Paper to add contrast.
