Starting Points by Shimelle

Well, I have been absent from the scrapbooking scene for a while working on minibooks and altered art. Recently I rediscovered Two Peas In A Bucket's Forum's and have been more into doing layouts. I recently discovered an online class that is AWESOME! Shimelle Laine teaches a class that shows you how to use an entire collection pack down to the last scrap. Here is a link to the website to sign up for the class. I had a pack of Pink Paisley Vintage Vogue paper that I just LOVE, and wanted to use it all. It came with four sheets of each paper (2 sheets of each design) and I was like.."how am I going to use all this paper?". Well, this class did the trick! By using half of the pad for backgrounds and cutting up the other half I got twelve (yes 12!) "starting point" layouts done! What is a starting point? Check it out here. I will post the starting point layout and completed layout later on. You can check it out on my Facebook page if you cannot wait!
