Layout © Ali Edwards
Ali Edwards, in my opinion (although I know I'm not the only one with this opinion), is the master of using non typical (i.e not rectangular) photo shapes and utilizing the grid design. She was kind enough to share with me the above page, titled "cousins: so much to love," as the inspiration for this challenge.
In addition, my previous layout "A," would also fit the qualifications for this prompt:
***Use non-typical photo shapes...That is, something other than the typical rectangular photo.
Although circular photos are provided as an example, you are not limited to using only circular photos.
Here are some page ideas incorporating creative photo cropping:
- rain drop photo shape for outdoor rainy day shots or bathing/shower page themes.
- Circlular photo cropping to simulate:
- bubbles (for photos of kids blowing bubbles or bubble bath themes).
- circular photos being big flower centers for summer seasonal pages, gardening, or kids picking flowers.
- a game like chess where the circular grid format would be a chess board
- a sun for summer and beach ball themes.
- Christmas ornaments on the tree.
- honey comb photo cropping: for bee/summer pages
- various geometric photo shapes cropped to simulate traffic signs.
- heart shape: for love or Valentine's Day themes.
Here are the rules of the challenge:
Format: Traditional, digital, hybrid scrapbook pages, cards, altered object, home decor items, etc...just about anything using scrapbooking supplies as long as you follow the set challenge specifications for using non rectangular photos.
