Welcome to the Pinkfresh Studio A Case of the Blahs Blog Hop! The Design Team is here to share some inspiration using one of the newest collections from PF Studio. You should have arrived here from Beata Valint's Blog. If you're just starting out, make sure you head over to the Pinkfresh Studio Blog for the beginning of the Hop.
As a scrapbooker, I have the tendency to only scrapbook the "pretty" photos from life...but we all know that life isn't always pretty. A Case of the Blahs offers great products to use for those times in life that may not be unicorns and rainbows. You still have beautiful products in the collection, but they give you the opportunity to document every facet of life, other than just those happy moments.
When I'm photographing the kids, I never know what kind of photos I'll end up with. Sometimes they are cooperative and other times we just take what we can get. HA! I had an outtake photo from a tree photo shoot of our middle daughter, with her best pouty face and knew the papers and embellishments from A Case of the Blahs would be perfect with it.
I decided to create a vertical design on this layout. I printed the photo a little larger than I normally do and kept it in Black & White. I wanted to use a lot of the b&w embellishments from the collection to contrast with the pops of color from the background paper. And I added in a few colorful embellishments to break up some of the b&w.
Now it's time to continue on the Hop, and you are off to visit Anna Kossakovskaya's Blog. Here is the full Hop order, if you would like to use it for the rest of the Hop.
