Sometimes layouts can be as simple as black and white. I have found those layouts to be absolutely stunning. So when I received an order for a client who wanted a scrapbook done for her boyfriend, I knew I had to use this technique to create some layouts that were romantic, yet not overly girly.

This layout started with a base of patterned paper from Prima's Rose Quartz line. I then stamped some lacy mandalas with black archival ink and then added some modeling paste through a stencil.

| The simplicity in color really allows the photo to become the star of the layout. Delicate details in the die cuts add to the ethereal feel of the page. |
Next I die cut some butterflies, a doily and a frame. I designed and printed off the Bible verse and inked it as well. Then I began layering on all of my elements. The only bit of color on this layout comes from the soft brown of the vellum card, the bard, the key and the gold string on the tassel.
