Bella Blvd | Crafty Love...

Hello Friends!  Today I am sharing a LO created for Bella Blvd and the design team's Monday Challenge.  This week we had to incorporate 6 photos onto our layouts.  :)



 
 
"Crafty Love"

products used: cs - Kaiercraft; pp - Bella Blvd (max, lucky starz, family forever); alphas - Bella Blvd; other - Bella Blvd: feathers, stickers, Max paper pieces; Heidi Swapp colorshine (navy).

Sure.  At first glance I didn't meet the requirements of this challenge, right?!  Here's a closer look... *grin*

 

 
Scrapping in the smaller size often only allows me to use one or two photos per layout.. that and the fact that I do like to have a little white space on my layout somewhere! LOL!  So my simple solution was to create a mini file folder/flap/hidden space to add extra elements.  In this case it was my photos.  So instead o 6 photos on my layout I actually have 9.  phew! This challenge had me stepping outside the box somewhat!
 
 


If you would like to see how I created this LO, with a basic step by step guide to hide your own photos on a layout, please head on over to Bella Blvd.  Thanks so much for visiting...x

What do you mean by folder? I would like to know how you made the little book?

Hi Margarita. I used a piece of cardstock folded in half and adhered it to my lo
Inside the "fold" I added photos to create the mini book. It is all very simple. :) There are more details on the Bella Blvd blog ( link in this post ).
