Layouts for limited photos

Have you ever walked into a scrapbook store past a paper shelve and stopped right in your tracks in awe of a beautiful peace of paper that caught your eye. I was inspired by this paper and just had to use it for something. 

The only problem was I didn't have photos that match the paper. After going through my limited amount of baby photo's, I had to make a plan.

These days we all  have digital cameras and can take many photos of the same day, sort through them and only save the ones we like. Back in the day my parents took lots of photos but not many in the same theme because they had to have them all printed  before they could see them. So like many of you I only have 2 or 3 photos per theme to create my layout. To make it even more tricky I prefer working on double page layouts.

  I selected a few photos in kind of the same age group and printed them all out in sepia. Even though they were not in the same theme or color to start with they work pretty well on this page. 

   

      

With this layout I only had 3 photos in the same coloring. If you look closely you will see that I used one photo twice. I printed them out in different sizes to fool the eye.                          

For this double page layout I only used one photo that I printed in different colors and sizes.

Double page layout with 4 photos not taken on the same day but kind of the same color and year.
