Scrap Girl

Since Valentine’s Day is coming up and I had to make some layouts with the Temptation Kit from Karyn at Digital Arts Cafe, I decided to do a sweetheart scrapbook page about my husband.  I don’t think I’ve ever just dedicated a scrapbook page to just him in a long time, if ever.  The papers and elements in this kit worked well for doing this page.  I just cropped the photos to fit together, cropped a piece of the red digital page for a background matte, added the rest of the elements and a little text and I was done.  I do see that I should add the year that these pictures were taken somewhere on the page.  I think a lot of the time, we scrapbookers get caught up in the design and overlook some little important things like the date or the year.  After the page was finished I added drop shadows to all of the pieces on the page except the background paper and the pictures.  When I was first learning about digital scrapbooking from a course I downloaded, I found out about drop shadowing for digital layouts and how it can add so much to your page as far as dimension goes.  I’m headed out of town tomorrow to a scrapbooking retreat, but I’ve posted ahead some other layouts and a special free Valentine’s Day digital quickpage freebie for you on the 14th, so please come back and grab it.
