This is another of the Workshop on the Go Kits, Made with the Crusin Papers. I really like this layout for a couple of reasons. It is a little different in appearance…The little squares on the left page make it stand out from traditional layouts. And I get to use up some old photos. You know the ones, that were taken 20 plus years ago that were grainy and from cameras with no zoom. So I got to crop my photos into little squares, and you would never know that the images that I cropped were on regular sized photos with lots of blank space. Plus instead of one 5x7 photo I got to use the odd sized 3.5x5 inch photos that were printed back in the day. Retro Style I guess.
One other change I made was that I just couldn’t bring myself to use the only 2 Grey Wool Patterned papers (with another cool design on the backside) for base pages. So I used Grey Flannel Cardstock and I took my Grey Flannel Ink Pad and swiped it directly onto the cardstock to give it some texture. I think it looks just as nice.
