Sorry for the delay in getting my July Totally Sweet Scrap Club pages posted. I was having trouble deciding what pictures to use & what extra embellishments to add. I have selected my photos & some embellishments, but it just didn't seem complete. The first photo below is what my pages look like right now & the 2 pictures following it are potential completed pages. I don't know that I'm really happy with either of them. What do you think?? Leave me comment on what you think I should do with the pages...PLEASE!!
The general layout & theme are from Nancy Kliewer's pages that you can find HERE. The white embossed title idea came from Rhonda Beadell's pages HERE.
You know after seeing all three pictures in a row here, I'm thinking less is more. The bottom 2 pictures just seem a little too cluttered. What do you think?? Leave me a comment.
Supplies: Stamps: Independence Day, Well-Worn Alphabet
Ink & Paper: Pacific Point, Riding Hood Red, Sahara Sand, & Whisper White-Craft
Extras: White Embossingn Powder, Heat Tool, Embossing Buddy, Paper Snips, Dotto Adhesive, What?? No Ribbon? I must be getting ill!
Have a happy day! Erin
Hey Erin - I'm with you on this one - I like the first layout the best - it's so cute and fun!

I agree, i like the first one best. The embellishments don't overwhelm the pictures :)

I think the added hearts in the stars and corners is nice but that the firecrackers became too much, you could change the hearts to firecrackers and be o.k. too.

I like the first layout best. If you feel like you need to add anything to it add a few firecrackers! Great layout.

I love these pages. I love your blog...found it from Patty's. You are so talented! Since you asked for an opinion...I'll share mine on these pages. :) I too like the top one. But...I would take the hearts in the upper left and right corners that you had on the bottom pages and add those, and then the firecracker bundles that you had in the 2nd group. See what that looks likes. That's what I think. :) Just my opinion though...I do think it's all beautiful and you're amazing!
