Follins Pond Spread 2

Documenting our annual April trip to Cape Cod using the new Flowers FotoBlendz Template Album pages. I used the templates pretty much as is, just removing a frame, tweaking the size of others, and adding a large photo down the centerline on a Fotoblendz Overlay. I added taupe paint to the sides of the spread over a solid background, using that paint color to color the flower brushes layered into the template pages. The challenge here, as it is with all of my family spreads, was unifying the disparities in color. Here I relied on orange accents in a rough triangle formation to help glide the eye over the various colors, and I spread out the red checked flannel/yellow slicker images over two pages.
Love the large center photo you added. I think you did a great job with the colors. They look very balanced, especially the blue sky across both pages. I also like the taupe colors at the edges. I usually go darker on those template layers, but I think I'll try the lighter approach.

I'm using the paint-at-the-edges hack a lot these days to unify colors across spreads. In this case I just color-picked my daughter's sweater and used that. Give me a simple solution and I'm in!
 
Well you took full advantage plus your artsy touches and made a stunning spread. I like your paint hack and will try it in the future. Love the family vibe too.
 
I love the background - keep looking at it, so natural, a perfect backdrop for the photos. Nice job with the little bits of color! My BIL is visiting from Sandwich this weekend, so it's been fun talking about "beach" differences. I've only been to the Cape once, in college, so have no experience of it. Wish I could beam myself there to visit (flight too long for me).
