This past Saturday, my Big Picture Class held an impromptu on-line crop to celebrate our midpoint in the course. This was the first on-line crop I "attended" so I did not really know what to expect or what to do. Well, I think I picked it up pretty quickly. We posted messages, had challenges, put our work up in the gallery, won prizes (YES, I did!) and had a lot of fun! I worked on several projects, and wanted to share my week 6 layout that I call "Alien Lunch". My husband and I took a little road trip and had lunch at a diner in the midst of the UFO area of the east - Pine Bush, NY. It was a lot of fun, and I wanted a playful layout, and I wanted to try as many of the techniques from class that I could with it. I used distress inks, spray mists, doodles, layers, paper, fabric, metal, etc.
Sometimes, you do things without really realizing it. It wasn't until I put the pages side by side, that I saw the design really does flow one page into the other. I must have had my subconscious working on that part of it!
And, a find today in my stash, was this double 12x12 clipboard - just perfect to use to photograph my pages and put them on display....could have used it yesterday, but, hey now I have it out.
Maura,
ReplyDeleteLOVE this layout and I love the way that you are displaying it! Are those little gemstone robots? Too cute. It sounds like your first on-line crop was a success as well as this layout. That class is just perfect for you!
