Bad Girls -Class 3

Along with fellow Pinay scrappers, I made it to Class 3 of Bad Girls Design School. This week's lesson is about Design Elements.

I chose
direction-oblique as my element on my layout to show Vcoy's neck mimicking the swan's. I used BIG chipboard SWIRLS to complement the BIG PICTURE of Vcoy and to lead the direction to my layout's title BEAUTY then towards the picture then down to the (hidden) journaling.

I used WHITE as my color (the black border is not included on the layout) because Vcoy's shirt matches the swan and I find his facial expression as innocent-looking...so pure...beautiful, hence the title.

The pull-out journaling further moves the direction downwards to the stamped swirls.

Hi Airees. My DH always tells me to get my cues from the photos, not only for the colors but for shapes and directions. I was never really convinced that works until you used the same technique in your LO. Galing!
