Layering it up: Saturday Scraplift No.168

Building up a scrapbook layout can be like a construction project. Building it up layer by layer so that even though it is a digital scrapbook page it has depth and a feeling of weight.

This week I have chosen a layout bykmatorina:

Doesn’t a helicopter ride in Alaska sound amazing? And this is an amazing page to remember it by, as well. I love how all those layers are built up, and how they all conect and overlap so they form one cohesive unit. None of them are left floating - and the page does not look cluttered. Lots of space left for the page to “breathe” plus a strong border to balance the weight of the cluster of photo and elements make this a really strong and eye-catching layout.

Maybe you’ll want to try your hand at lifting this great page, just as Jodi, Wendy and I did. Here’s what we came up with:
