Have you enjoyed the month long birthday celebration? Have you won something or participated in one of the challenges? The month isn’t over so there’s still time. I love learning new things and I love being surrounded by talented and creative people. I came home from Japan with a card full of photos and videos and I wanted some inspiration. As luck would have it, I found plenty in the Layout Artist Challenge. I have to say (so far) that Week 3 is my favorite because the focus was on enhancing your photos. Each participant was asked to share their “recipe” or the steps they took to improve their photo. Some of these photos went through a remarkable change and the recipes are listed right below each one so you can duplicate it. I learned some very cool tips and saw some techniques that will really rock my photos.
I love this page by texjudy and you can see the steps she took to get this cool effect here.
This week, (Week 4) is all about double pages. I was inspired in some way by each of these; so inspired in fact that I did my own and used a few of the techniques from week 3 on my photos. I whipped it out pretty quick using one of Boo’s Let’s Make A Photo Book Pages Templates.
We visited the Kumumoto Castle one day so I spiffed the template up with Japanese Whispers and had it finished in no time.
You can see some great inspiration for more double pages in the Layout Artist Gallery and you still have time to find something to “wow” your week or your hobby in before the celebrations ends. As luck would have it this time next week the NSD excitement will be in full swing. Do you have your shopping list made? Have you been keeping an eye on your favorite designers so you’re ready when the virtual doors open? Fortunately, you don’t have to wait to get some great deals! Today Boo is the Featured Designer and her entire store is 50% off plus she has a bonus (today only) you can try this double page photo book from her Blend It Like Boo Annum Imaginum Vol. 1 April absolutely FREE. What better way to start your next photo book?

The moment I saw this beautiful kit I fell in love with it. Aries by JulieC Designs is a gorgeous kit with fantastic colors. Let me tell you about what inspired JulieC by creating this kit:
“Make way for the ram! As another March comes to pass, April arrives in triumph. With it, Aries, the fiery ram, first sign of the zodiac. The planet Mars is said to be the ruler of Aries, and appropriately, the color of April is red, symbolic of the red planet and it’s iron-rich surface. If you’re lucky enough to call April your birth month, you’ll know that April’s gemstone is the diamond, a reminder that life is full of riches. In this fourth addition to the Zodiac collection by Julie C and Pmarie Designs, you’ll find each of these symbols and many more, all designed to help you decorate your April-themed pages. Perfect for project 365/52/12 albums, you’ll find all of the basics in this collection like ribbons, buttons, flourishes, and frames, plus a selection of coordinated papers, tags, flairs, and brushwork to embellish your pages. From April Fool’s Day to Earth Day and Passover, if April is your theme, you’ll find what you need in Aries.”
Zodra ik deze prachtige kit zag werd ik verliefd. Aries van JulieC Designs is een hele mooie ki met fantastische kleuren. Ik zal jullie vertellen hoe JulieC werd geinspireerd om deze kit te maken:
“Maak plaats voor de ram! Als er weer een maart voorbij is, komt april triomferen met Aries, de fiere ram, eerste teken van de dierenriem. Er wordt gezegd dat de planeet Mars de heerser is van de ram en de kleur van april rood. Rood symboliseert de rode planeet Mars en zijn ijzerrijke oppervlakte. Als je het geluk heb dat je in april geboren bent, moet je weten dat april’s edelsteen een diamand is, een teken dat het leven vol rijkdommen is. In dit vierde deel van de dierenriemcollectie van JulieC en Pmarie Designs vind je allerlei symbolen om je april layout te decoreren. Perfect voor een 365/52/12 project en daarom vind je ook alle basis elementen zoals linten, knopen, bloemen en lijsten in deze collectie, samen met prachtige achtergrond papers en brushes. Vanaf 1 april tot aan mei, vind je alles wat je nodig hebt voor een prachtige april layout in Aries!
Besides the kit JulieC made some fabulous coordinating products like the Aries Clusters, the Aries Brushwork, the Aries Tags, the Aries Flairs and more. You can buy it all apart, but of course you can save a lot of money when you purchase the Aries Bundle, which is currently on sale for a whole 50% off.
Naast de kit heeft JulieC ook nog een aantal prachtige, coördinerende produkten gemaakt zoals de Aries Clusters, de Aries Brushwork, de Aries Tags, de Aries Flairs en meer. Je kunt dit alles apart kopen, maar natuurlijk scheelt het een hoop geld als je de Aries Bundle aanschaft. Deze is namelijk in de aanbieding met maar liefst 50% korting!
I loved making a quickpage with this fabulous kit for you and I hope you will love to use it. Please enjoy!
Ik vond het super om een quickpage voor jullie te maken met deze prachtige kit en ik hoop dat jullie het super zullen vinden hem te gebruiken! Veel plezier ermee!
