The Layout
Double Rickrack Gradient Layout
A couple of years ago Creative Memories released the Totally Tonal packs of paper in various shades that matched their line of cardstock. Within each pack there was a gorgeous gradient paper, and I created this layout for my customer group to showcase a fun say to play upon the gradient pattern.
Then, earlier this year, Creative Memories doubled down on the popularity of the gradient papers and created whole packs of tonal papers that feature various types of gradients with the Best Hits Gradients Paper buffet. Someone reached out to me this week asking how to utilize these papers and I remembered this layout design and thought it would be fun to share the idea as part of this week’s Scrapbook Live.
The layout in the handout uses the Totally Tonal Island Waters paper pack along with Starry Night Shimmer paper. I used the Double Rickrack BMC for this layout because pass of the BMC along the paper gives you two strips which worked perfect for the design. The other punches were chosen to fit the theme of my photos, which were snapshots of a “pool bath” that my kiddo took many years ago when they were a toddler at my parents’ house. The retired Bubbles BMC and Kissing Fish Chain BMC worked perfectly. I used the corner rounder to add a bit more interest to the photos as they fit on the page.
