One of my absolute favorite places to spend time is at the beach so you can imagine my excitement when I saw the Sun-Kissed collection! Our family went on an amazing cruise vacation for Christmas this year and I have lots and lots of photos that will work perfectly with all of the designer papers and embellishments from Sun-Kissed. I am inspired to get working on my album and hope you are too. Let’s get started!
What You’ll Need to Create These Digital Layouts:
- Sun-Kissed Digital Paper Pack
- Sun-Kissed Digital Elements
- Sun-Kissed Digital Mat Pack
- White Script ABC/123 Digital Elements
For this cluster, I resized a full-sized paper to a small square for a photo mat, turned it a 45-degree angle, added some elements and a shadow to make them pop!
My photo mats are actually journal boxes because they were the perfect size for my photos and I pushed them together in the center to make them appear joined.
Add the photos and no one ever knows they were originally journal boxes.
For my next page, I used the heart in the sand photo mat, which matched my photos wonderfully!
I used the photo mat as my background, and because of the high quality, the resolution is great!
Stacking embellishments is always fun, and I like to make them stand out from each other. For the flip-flop embellishment, I added a shadow on the right and then added a second shadow on the left.
Enjoy creating your Sun-Kissed layouts. Comment below and tell us what you are using the Sun-Kissed collection for!
How do you leave a shadow?
It’s a digital page. You can do shadows on any side.
I use Artisan to create my pages and the way I add a shadow is quite simple in this program. Go to the Format ribbon at the top and then click on Light, Heavy or Custom in Shadows. Hope this was helpful.
Awesome layouts!
Thank you!
Thank you Jacqueline!
I am a newby to this. How do you do digital layouts? Do you have to upload your pictures to a site? Sorry if I seem slow but I have never done this before but I love it!
Hi Holly,
You need to have a software program on your computer to create pages. You then upload your photos and the content and start creating!
Thank you! I will have to do my homework and learn how to do this!
If you need help please message me. :)
