Tone-on-Tone Layout using Legendary | Susi Becerra

Hello everyone! Susi here, and today on the Pinkfresh Studio blog I'm sharing a dimensional and creative 12 x 12 layout made with the Legendary collection. This project is full of color, texture and movement, thanks to rolled paper strips and layered embellishments. It's a fun way to showcase multiple photos in one design!

Step- by- Step Instructions
1. Cut paper strips: Choose four patterned papers from the Legendary collection that coordinate with your photos. Cut them into 2-inch-wide strips of varying lengths (four strips in total).
2. Roll the edges: Place the strips on your 12 x 12 white cardstock base. On each end of every strip, use a pencil or thin brush handle to roll the paper back, creating a dimensional curled effect.
3. Add your photos: Place one photo on each strip of paper.This creates a unique layered look with the photos integrated into the design.
4. Decorate the layout: Finish by adding embellishments from the Legendary collection-stickers, chipboard, die cuts...and more. Use the tone on tone technique. Don't forget to add Enamel Dots for a shiny, playful touch!
I'd love to see how you recreate this layout!
Quick Trip
Try mixing strips of different widths to change the look. You can also tuck journaling tags behind the rolled edges for hidden messages or extra photos!
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you like it and inspires you. See you next time!
