Inspirational Layouts

Last month I had the pleasure of having DET (Digital Scrapbook Place’s Digital Elite Team) member mcbowersox as my dedicated DET member. On a rotational basis designers have a dedicated DET member to use solely that designers work for the month rather than rotating through all the designers as usual. I love having the closer contact with the DET member for a month and really enjoy seeing what one DET member comes up with using my products.

Last time I had a dedicated DET member I really enjoyed being able to feature her work on my blog and decided it might be nice to do again. Christy has a real knack making my designs work for her particular design style. I am sure you will agree her layouts have flare and are very inspiring! If you want to see her layouts up closer, you can click on them to go to her gallery and see them there.

This first layout is titled Friends Forever and is created with my Urban Teen Value Collection, Urban Edge Masks and Whimsical Words of Friendship Wordart. I love the fun and fresh feel to this layout! Gorgeous!

Christy has beautifully demonstrated the versatility of the Urban Teen Value Collection by making a masculine layout with it also. She also used one of my Stamp Cluster Frames (recoloured).

I love how she used my Scrap Comix Value collection to create some really fun layouts in an adorable comic book style. I have to say, how ADORABLE are her kids!!!

This layout, Super Girl, also uses my Blocks and Grids Layered Template

I absolutely adore the following layouts using my Doodle Spritz Value Collection. The soft pastel tones work so beautifully with Christy’s photos and I adore her element clustering. In the following layout Beautiful To Me, Christy also used my Floral Art Masks and Whimsical Words of Beauty.

In this layout, Christy has used my Recycled Paper Alpha as well as the Doodle Spritz Value Collection.

I had a lot of fun with colour creating the Fresh Funk Value Collection and Christy really shows those colours off to perfection in her layouts using Fresh Funk. Christy also uses my Whimsical Words of Fun Wordart with the following layout.

I really love how Christy has used the hanging frame in this layout using Whimsical Words of Beauty Word Art as well as the Doodle Spritz Value Collection.

I love how Christy takes advantage of the rich tones in the About a Boy Value Collection with these layouts. I love the sepia tones combined with the rich red on this layout. She also used the Grunge Flourish Layered Template in the first layout to give some extra grungy goodness! Love it and love the fabulous element clustering!

I love how Christy uses a ‘boy’ kit and proves you don’t have to just use it for boys!!! Check out this adorable layout. How cute are these girls!!

When I designed the Merry Wishes Value Collection I wanted the colours have a slightly different than traditional colour palette as well as something that would work with a wide variety of photos and styles. You can truly get a lot of looks from the Merry Wishes Value Collection to make the most out of it. I love the non traditional colours used as a base for this layout by Christy but the touches of closer to Christmas colour to give it a Christmas-y feel.

Now this one I absolutely ADORE! I love how she used the two patterned backgrounds with the Halftone Layered Template to have them blend diagonally on the page. I never would have thought to use Merry Wishes with the Halftone Layered Template but I am sure you will agree, Christy pulls it off beautifully!

This next layout Christy created using the Sea Biscuit Value Collection. I love her simple layout and the freshness of the photo. The simplicity of this layout works beautifully and makes it look simply striking!

I hope you have enjoyed Christy’s beautiful work and find it as inspiring as I do. I don’t get to do layouts as often as I would like so it is always a treat to see what other people create with my kits. If you want to see more of Christy’s (mcbowersox) beautiful layouts, why not check out her gallery.
