Monday


Now this is a bit of a different style for me. This is my first page for a fantastic shape based journal exchange that I am involved in - this one has an upright rectangular shape (which I love) but the shape we have to incorporate in our design for this journal is circles. So as you can see I have gone for two layers of polka dot papers, circular stamps (Fancy Pants) in the background, polka dot ribbons and also circular alphabet beads.

I may have got a bit too wacky with my "OH MY" but I thought that the woman sort of looked like that might be what she was saying (even if her mouth is not forming a perfectly round "O") as she looked downwards - perhaps at the scales (hence the tape measure) or perhaps at her overly rounded toes!! I've said toes as we wouldn't want our beautifully rounded heroine to have body image issues would we!

Until tomorrow...

I would never have guessed! The circles are very subtle, and let the picture dominate. Well done!

I love the polka dots and the daisies, they had add such a zany quality. And I'm always happy to see those curvy vintage girls with real shape.
