Layout share

Here's a super-easy layout I made recently to document all the exciting things that go on backstage at a show choir competition. At one of the the events this past season, I made it a point to take pictures of "behind the scenes" activities, and I was lucky to get a few from other show choir moms. If I'm attending multiple events throughout a season (like show choir, jazz band, marching band, etc.), it's easy for the photos to become repetitive, so I look for opportunities to document something new or different.



To make this layout, I created a large white photo mat on a black base then simply placed photos edge to edge to fill the space, allowing room for a simple title and journaling.
I selected three photos that included the bright pink/purple dress to create a visual triangle across the two pages.

This kind of layout is definitely the way to go if you're working with a lot of photos but don't want to spend a lot of time fussing with them!
