Create with Connie and Mary--White, White and all White!

This week our challenge was to design a project featuring WHITE. I was actually excited about this as I knew I wanted to create a scrapbook page and Stampin’ Up! actually has quite a bit of white products to work with!

I created my page on a base of 12x12 Basic White (naturally, hence our challenge!) and I created a photo mat to highlight a picture of my work bestie (@citrusandcedar). The picture is layered on Basic White and the Pearlescent Specialty Paper, which is still white, just a different tone of white! I love the subtle contrast.

I wanted to create some texture on the base of the page, especially because we are working with one color. I used one of our retired masks (I keep them all together so I wasn’t sure if it was retired or not until I wrote this) with our White Embossing Paste to add some texture and interest to the base.

I had a ton of daisy’s already punched out from a previous project so I decided to feature these on my page. Both the punch and stamp set, Daisy Lane, are being offered in our new upcoming catalogue. So that is an extra bonus! I placed some of the daisies off the edges of the page and then trimmed the excess away. I like the look this creates.

I like to create a couple of focal points around my photos on my scrapbook pages too. I decided to keep it simple by using only the Daisy Lane stamp set and stamped the sentiments in Basic Grey.

The sentiment “The Best Moments” is also layered on Shimmery White. You can see how it has a different tone as well, even though its white.

I added white pearls all over the page too as some accents.

At the top right corner of the photo, Friend is punched out with the Label Me Fancy tag and has Crinkled Seam Binding and Basic White Thread behind it as an accent.

Around the photo I tied some of the Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon and Basic White Thread as another fun accent.

I really love the crispness of this page and how nice and elegant it looks in tones of white. I can’t wait to see what the other ladies have created this week. You can go BACK to see what Melissa has designed and NEXT to see what Connie has created!
