One of the things that I think my scrapbooking misses and something that I struggle with is, to make my pages flow....the lady that i linked you all too yesterday...her pages...they flow...
Her pages have movement...I cannot even begin to explain that....but they are very different to mine....something that i struggle with is squares...most of my pages, are square ( not as in the shape being 12 by 12 i mean the bits that i add on)...I know this...my work has been called samey before...( is that how you spell it?) I will agree with them...i have a style and I stick with it. I tend to stay within a square and i struggle to get out it....Lilith..her pages...they flow...they move outside the square....sigh........I am not explaining this very well...i am sorry...
Well...anyway...i have taken some inspiration from her very very gorgeous work...taken the idea of detailing the edges of her pages...behind her photos......Okay every one....i stamped!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yep me, I took her ideas and I ran with them....( lifted them if you like...though I could never lift her pages..I wouldn't even know where to begin)......but it is a step in the right direction....here's to flowing!!!!!!
So here is my page that I have made.........trying to 'flow!!!!!
Before you ask...this is a photo of me when I was little....
I stamped the edges with a text stamp with a light grey ink..I then added some stamped butterflies..all bought from 'The Range' a few days ago...
I also added some washi tape to the edges as well...
I cut the vellum heart using a shape from my cameo...loving vellum at the moment...so much so that I have added it to the August Papermaze kit in the form of an envelope...love it!!!!
Anyway....I also saw the other day that I am near to having 500 followers on this blog...that is amazing...I think when it reaches 500 I will have a giveaway!

You did great in adding some "flow" to the page. I love the details you put into your pages, and I'm glad to see your own style in this page too. Lovely page, lovely photo! I'm just starting scrapping, untill recently I only did cards and you're pages are very inspirational to me, thanks! Joyce
This is a brilliant LO ...love the flow ...I think you have kept your style too....may pinch some ideas when my mojo comes back....finally.
This is just GORGEOUS. LOVE the stamping and you make me blush with all your compliments. Love how you tried something new but still made it you! Isn't that what it is all about. Having fun and creating. Love everything you make and it never seemed square or samey to me, just Wendy! Hugs!
Such a gorgeous layout!

Not great with actually pinning stuff in Pinterest...but I pinned your lovely LO! :D
wowy! this is AMAZING!!! Love how you stamped on this page--EXCELLENT!
funny how self critical we are isn't it. I could never call your layouts samey or square. They are very Wendy and I love them. I have to see one I didn't like and wish I could produce them.
this is a gorgeous layout, I love it
Fantastic page! Great design and lots of fun goodies! :)
Another lovely page stamping on my pages is something I struggle with to but will definitely try it on my next lo.
Oh my goodness Wendy, this is absolutely GORGEOUS!!! I am so in love with it. :) Pinned!
Goodness Wendy this is just extraordinary I totally love every little element you have added - it's just so so breathtaking - I am in awe!!!!
Terrific page! Frankly, I love what you do and do not find it 'samey'. It is always good to try and work a little out of your box though!
Absolutely amazing! But you haven't given yourself enough credit. Your work is fantastic! Love all the detail. Both of you ladies are very inspiring! Very thankful I have found both of your work!
Oh Wendy, you've done it again! This is simply gorgeous! Thank you so much for continuing to share your work with us. I truly am inspired by it.
