I have started a recent routine where I devote Sundays to only doing the things that I love or want to do. I am not a religious person, but I do value the idea of having a day of rest. Lately I have been spending my Sundays either scrapbooking or surfing Pinterest for scrapbooking ideas.
To add to that I want to have a weekly Sunday post sharing a scrapbooking layout that I've made. This first one I have for today is the title page for one of my albums.
About the Layout
This is one of my favorites! I am normally a stickler for things being straight on my layouts. For this one I let the entire middle design be at a slight angle. I also watercolored the flowers on the paper to the right to match the paper embellishments. Oh I cheated on the background too; I used two pieces of identical 6x6 paper, the seam is hidden underneath the photo.
About the Photo
The pose I am holding in the photo is that of the Hindu god Shiva. I learned about this stance in my Mythology course. The hand that is up, is a warning in regards to life; life is full of pain and suffering. The other hand that is down and exposed is a welcome however. I fell in love with the notion of being given a warning and a welcome at the same time. I like to experiment with my self-portraits so this pose was something I wanted in my scrapbook album.
Let me know what you think in the comments.
If you have any questions as well, feel free to ask.
Thanks for stopping in!
