Wyland
Die Cuts by Hailey Jackson |
The idea of this layout was to make something easy that incorporated not only the colors in the pictures I had, but also the feel of the setting. The weather was kind of gloomy, but peaceful, and the blues really helped to create the atmosphere. I liked the idea of the tiles because we took pictures in front of the tile fountains.
Choosing the Colors
-As easy as it sounds, it isn't always an easy chore to choose colors for your layouts. I have to admit though, this one wasn't too much of a challenge for me. All shades of blue, especially those found in the fountain, and grey for the background to set the scene for the layout.

Instructions
The Title Topper
-To create the title topper, I went to the Wyland website and cut and pasted a picture of his signature into a word program. I enlarged the image and printed it. After placing the navy blue cardstock underneath the signature, all I! had to do was outline each letter with a pencil or pen. This leaves a faint outline on the navy cardstock which I simply filled in with a silver opaque writer.
Piecing the Puzzle
-I don't know why this all came naturally to me, it just did. I cropped my photos to include all of the details I wanted, and then cut rectangular and square pieces of various blue papers and arranged them on the page. I just made sure that I didn't put two of the same colored pieces next to each other, and it all fell into place. I used an adhesive to place the tiles and voila! The page is complete.
