zero embellishments...

[adi&co.]

does anybody have an example of this type of page? I want to see what one looks like as I'm taking zero embellishments to mean absolutely zero! No ribbons, flowers, swirls, scatters, alphas, etc, and I want to see what that would look like

[SeattleSheri]

I have this one in my gallery. I don't know if you count the swirly or not

[lauren grier]

a lot of Misty's layouts have zero embellishments :]

[adi&co.]

thanks ladies! Misty really is a great example of this isn't she? Even the ones that have embellishments don't have many on there. Thanks

[Libby Pritchett]

When I think of this style, I think of something you might see in a magazine. The photos really are the focus with the text being secondary. "Clean" is the word that comes to mind for me. I definitely think Misty is the perfect example of this!

Thanks for opening this thread, the info and the examples. I had no idea what to do with that one too.

[MommaTrish]

This one doesn't have zero, but very few. It doesn't even have paper, the colored squares are in fact just colored squares. lol

[Lelly]

I absolutely love layouts made like Mistys, clean, crisp, white space! I think I'm going to have to try really hard to make more layouts like these.

But we can use alphas right?

[Kjersti]

I really want to try that challenge! I pretty much use every embellishment in a kit so it's time to step outside my comfort zone. Thanks for providing Misty's sample! Her page rocks!

I think alphas count as embellishments. (As they are often included in the embelli folder) Unless they are the stamped alphas - I can see those working.

To me, "No embellishments" means it's fine to use layered or shaped papers along with the photos and text. Am I interpreting that correctly?

[JuliaM]

Here are some that I've done:

[adi&co.]

I just made this one. I cut the letters out of a paper

[rach3975]

Great examples! I just saw in the Bingo FAQ thread that Robin said only photos, text. and papers on our non-embellished pages.

[adrianka]

Just adding some examples.

This one of mine only has paper:



As does this one:



And I have a whole book of these that don't even have papers:



And a another book of these that only used papers:

[adi&co.]

Great examples! love them

[Saar]

Wow, these are beautiful!

[kristijoy]

Beautiful Ladies! I have an idea now!

[nenzie78]

Great inspiration pages, thanks a lot.

[jaylensmom]

Great examples....

[MissKim]

My older layouts in my gallery have a lot of examples of just papers, photos and words. Some have one or two embellishments that could easily be left off.

[Saar]

This is my take on the challenge

[Misty Cato]

Sarah, that is beautiful!

[fruitysuet]

I am really struggling with this one too so I'm appreciative of seeing such great examples here.

A quick question - can we use shapes to clip papers to (eg from the PSE custom shapes library?)

[jk703]

Thank you for the examples ladies! This one will be a challenge - as intended, lol!

At the photography forum where I have spent most of my "forum time" in the last couple of years there is a LIKE button (as on Facebook) so as I'm scrolling and looking at awesome layouts here I keep wishing I could click on LIKE.
