Gallery Standouts 11/14/2011

Good Morning Me So Scrappy readers and followers, I know its Monday, and like me you might have a touch of the Monday blues? Personally I had a bad nights sleep and then nothing seemed to go right this morning.

I’ve come home from taking the little man to school, made a nice mug of coffee, wrapped myself up in a nice shawl, popped the radio on and now I feel a bit more alive after browsing the wonderful gallery here at MSS with that previously mentioned coffee !! LOL

Believe me there are some wonderful pages out there, sure to put a smile on your face !! Here is a selction of them, that I have picked as todays Gallery Standouts xx

Thankful by Tine

Bad morning or not, I have a lot to be thankful for, and this layout reminded me of that xx I love that there is no photo yet some elements are framed, the shadow work here is gorgeous and the colours are rich and warm. Such a beautiful page xx

SnS-MushroomHunting by SugarnSpice

I love the large frame on this page, as well as the journalling behind the photo. what great framing of the entire subject with those strips of paper, and beautiful cluster work both on the edge of the frame and just behind, tucked in behind the frame.

Saying Goodbye by Lizzy257

Another stunning photoless page, awesome layering and cluster work all around the main focal point of the journaling. Beautiful little touches, scattered amongst the papers and ribbons, the title work stands out yet doesnt over shadow the beauty of the page xx

Wishes by iciclelady

I love this page, and the original page that it was scraplifted from, the small frames and photos are perfectly placed, and I love the stapled paper strips around the edges. The journalling is sweet and touching and I adore the placement of elements here and there.

Paris by Memi

I’m a sucker for unusual papers, textures or patterns, in this case its the map, its really brings the page to life and I love the globe and camera elements used alongside the more traditional embelishments to a page of flowers, tags and greenery. Wonderful shadow work and photos too xx

These Two by MLee

The texture and colour is what first captured my eye in the gallery, the richness of the blues and oranges and the roughness of the clogs and gears. What a perfect match for the photos and the story behind them !! An absolutely stunning page.

The Cube by fruitysuet

WOW what a stunning large photo and great editing too, I love that the photo is Black and White with the colour pop being focussed on the Rubik’s Cube, great title work and fab journalling on the note paper.

AnnaLift (11.11.11-11.17.11) by oldvwblues

This page is beautiful, so much texture, yet so elegant and peaceful, just like the title, serene. I adore the defintion and the staement “I wish this for you”. Simply a beautiful scrapbook page xxx

Oh My, see what I mean, the gallery here is simply wonderful in lifting my spirits and putting a smile on my face. I hope these Gallery Standouts brightened your Monday morning, feel free to leave some love, all images are linked xx

Hope everyone has a wonderful week xx
