At The Bothy

Hello, and welcome to my blog!

Today I'm posting the layout I created with the Stick It Down May 2022 double page sketch:

And here is the original sketch:

As usual, I changed the format from 12" x 12" to A4, which meant that I had less room to work with horizontally.

On the right hand side page, I was still able to add three banner strips, but only two photos:

On the left hand side, I ended up replacing the title with a smaller photo - this double page layout will be part of a longer story, so it wasn't necessary to include a large title.

I had an extra photo to add, but I was running out of space - so I created a little hidden pocket and added the extra photo on a tag behind:

I tried to stay true for the placement of the embellishment cluster - but I really wanted to add some eye candy to the layout, so I elaborated on these a bit.

For this layout I used the Fernwood collection from Vicki Boutin, which is ideal for scrapbooking those late winter / early spring nature photos - I love how that dark floral paper pulls together all the crazy colours from the photos!
