mrshobbes' full of sunshine

This page is so fantastic. The details and design of this is just gorgeous but the extra touch of the lens flare really makes this page special.

I love the simplicity of this page. The white space design is so great and the way the color pops against the dark background is fantastic.

Hello everyone! Susan here to bring you some fabulous Monday layouts. I have a fun time searching through all the galleries, and its always hard to just narrow it down, but I have brought you my favorites.

 

Sunny Daydream by Jenny79

I just fell in love with this layout the second I seen it. Look at that fabulous shadowing and clustering. She used a fantastic color scheme that matches well with her photographs. You can tell the time she put into taking these this fabulous photo.

Lady Papillion by Ki1987

I love the softness and true fiminine qualities of this layout. She did a fantastic job at her design by placing such wonderful photos with clusters in a split page design.

Loves You by Snaggletooth75

Loves you is such an inspiring page. Look at how she has mixed so many true elements. Something I know alot of people find difficult. She has taken the paint, then layered up to strings, flowers, buttons, doodles, paper, and real elements to create one beautiful cluster and one amazing layout.

Inspired by Hondachicc

I really enjoy the true simplicity of this layout, yet the huge impact the message carries. I love how the photo is dominant part of the layout, with truely inspiring journaling.

080310 by Okran

I love the beautiful scenary created here. This layout has a fantastic use of elements and painted papers to create a place to beautfully set such a wonderful baby photo.

Having Fun by Slurpeegirl13

Something that always stands out to me is when someone uses both colored and black and white photos and then work them with a kit that accentuates them. I also love the vertical design and the wonderful clustering created here.

Well done, u by LenaBradenburg

Lena has always been someone who is truely inspiring with her layouts. I seen this layout and I love it! Something I know that is always tricky is trying to do photoless layouts. She has succeded in doing a fabulous one. In this layout you'll read some truely touching journaling.

Pump up the Jam by Traci Reed

I love when I can see someone used the entire page, but not make it look overly cluttered or messy. Traci did a fantastic job with this layout. I love the doodled elements mix with realistic elements.

For you what you like every!! by Ivana Alves

Ivana has such an eclectic style that is all her own. She is a source of constant inspiration, which you see here with this layout. I love her color scheme mixed with wonderful elements.

Evening all, Kate here with my picks from the galleries today. I hope you enjoy them!

zara's love list by cayla73

Utter cuteness! Such a strong composition here, I love the heart shaped grouping of brads and the beautifully controlled colour scheme. And that super-cute photo of course!

My bucket list by Ddamsel

There are a lot of bucket list layouts in the galleries at the moment but this one stopped me in my tracks as soon as I saw it. This is a real labour of love - it took 22 hours to complete - and is so striking and perfectly composed, there are so many details pulling your eye here and there but it's all tied together by the rainbows. Gorgeous.

Beach Boys by echogirl

Just SO simple - a group of photos, some tape and staples and a few splats and scribbles are all this page needs! Beautiful work.

Happy Holi by GButcher

I adore this page! Such a great photo set off by the perfect balance of white space and little touches of colour here and there.

my bucket list by gonewiththewind

Another bucket list (I couldn't resist showing them both!) and another incredible collage of hopes, dreams and aspirations.

I Didn't Come to Earth to Compromise by JALong

I am working on a layout with a similar cut-out effect at the moment and I know from bitter experience how hard it is to make it look as good as this! The colours here are great, I love the big stamped title and of course - the paper cut-out effect.

Cherish the Now by JenniferBarrette

Masterly use of so many patterned papers, this is so perfectly balanced.

Them... by sandramilie

This really lept out of the gallery at me, the combination of red background and the curved corners and multiple frames is really striking. I love the little smudge of black ink on the right too.

explore by lesliecoltrain

I just want to jump into this photograph and go exploring with this little chap! There is such an air of wonder and possibility in this layout, the journalling is beautifully written too. A magical page.

Bridget here today to post some beauties.  I was up early and had a couple of hours to browse the galleries.  I hope I found some inspiration for you, in particular a couple of pages that are a tribute to a special friend.

Forever, Bonnie by readstoomuch

There are many pages at Designer Digitals posted because of the sudden loss of one of their friends and CT members.  This is one of them - a beautiful page, but also a loving tribute.

Tribute to Bonnie by JALong

This is another tribute page to the DD CT member who passed away.  Sincere sympathy to Bonnie's family and friends for their loss.

These Boots by MuddyGirl

Wow - love this dark background with the selectively colored boots and the red stitching.  What a gorgeous page

Spring Quilt by KayM

oooh - how pretty!  I love the clear, crisp photo and the title work, accented by pretty flowers and patterned paper.

Owl-ways there by lucyabrams

Wow - what a beautiful hybrid project!  Love the word art and the googlie-eye accents

 

 

Smile by LelaFleet

I always love Lela's Layouts - and this is no exception.  Love the neutral background with the bright colored elements.  The shadowing is just perfect on this layout too!

My cookbooks by MelissaL88

I always love clean space layouts - and this one focuses on a relatively simple idea but still tells a lot about the scrapper.

The Bubble Gum Incident by mhreen08

I love the bright cheerful colors and the empty box with "no picture available"

Hoppy Easter by Lizzy257

Great hybrid project with the bunny and cheerful and spring colored ribbon accent.

TGIF!! What a week. I am sooooo happy it's Friday. Loads of gorgeousness in the galleries today. Here is some inspiration for you.

Best Thing by gonewiththewind

Guy pages are few and far between in the galleries so when one shows up, it totally grabs my attention. This page is stunning! Love the blending and repeated photo.

Color Your World by maryline

I am so in love with the page. Creative, artistic and clever!

Egg Dye by Emily Merritt

Love all the paper pieces used here. She created a really great free spirit, collage feeling.

Eggs by sportay24

Look at all this gorgeous layering! Love all the patterned papers and the depth she created here. WOW!

Feeling Springy by Jenny79

This is so pretty! So soft and lovely.

Jump For Spring by anubis1

This is just an awesome use of an extracted photo. So much fun and really showcases the photo. She created so much energy here.

Mermaids by eryn

Could this be any more fun?!? Love all the doodley bits. Those are the cutest mermaids I have seen in a long time!

Spring Is Here by anchlove

Check out the layering here!! Such incredible depth! That is one stunning cluster.

Warm My Heart by crystalbella77

I am completely charmed by this page. I love the vintage, shabby feel. Just perfection! I feel a scrap lift coming on.

Hello Wednesday!  Is it feeling a little more like spring where you are?  I can almost feel it in the air even though there is still a ton of snow on the ground.  Not only is the sun higher in the sky, but I can smell spring in the air!

Crissy's Just Be Strong  Love the distressed edges on the paper and the photo.  Also notice the mirroring of the stripes in the tights with the stripes on the accent paper.

 

hoo-rah's Clumsy  Ahhh...I can so relate to this page!  I love the black and white photo with the pops of bold colors.

 

Leila's Like a ton of Bricks  This page made me cry.  As someone who has also dealt with depression her journaling really captured the essence of the disease.  But it's her final statement that got to me..."I will be ok".  Amazingly powerful page.  Thank you for sharing with us!

 

lizzyfizzy's Operation: love overload  I think I've mentioned before how much I enjoy black and white photos on a white background with pops of color.  It's so visually striking!  Really great photos and the date stamp in the corner is the perfect touch.

 

lunafaerie's Playful  Ok, the soft muted color scheme and cute photo first drew my eye to this layout...but it's the journaling that made me pick it for the standouts blog.  The fact that her daughter "needs" to go to Target had me laughing and I know it's one of those little facts that would have been forgotten if it hadn't been captured in this LO.

 

mlpieters's You  The pink and orange color scheme really makes the photo the focus of this page.  The blues really pop.  I also like the awesome title work and clustering.

 

mrshobbes's decoding gaga  This page is visually stunning, captures a great piece of pop culture and captures the scrappers personality.  Awesome page!

 

sahlink's Champion  Great photo blending, great title work (love the highlighted letter in red) and the quote used captures the pride of the moment and encourages her daughter to keep going.

 

t_a_l_i's Skillz  I love shots of everyday objects.  Not only does this capture an important accomplishment it also captures a tiny detail of current fashion.  Love the pattern paper blocks and the alpha used for the title mimics the black and white soles of the shoes.  Fab!
