It's cool to be square! At least that's what I try to tell myself. And glancing through the recent {inspiration} in the gallery, I'm not the only one who thinks so. :)
As digiscrappers, we find it easy to really push the limits with what shapes we use when scrapping, but that doesn't mean getting "back to basics" with squares isn't still a great way to go. The constancy of the lines is something our brains naturally find restful to look at. As with a great little black dress, it's all in the accessories (or embellishments)!
This week's pages from our {storytellers} showcase just how wonderful using squares can look.
Erica (aka pne123) used repeating squares to frame and elements on either side to draw attention straight to that stunning photo:
Jennifer (aka scarlett1977) used Emily's Paper Block Templates to frame out her adorable family photos:
Carolee used repeating squares and rectangles too, but the scribbles behind really shake things up:
Kristy (aka gandcsmama) shows you how little you really need to communicate volumes. Don't you just want to run outside right now?
Well, I know I'm set in the inspiration department. How about you? Sold on the squares idea?
