Paper Trailing Down Ivy Lane

If you are coming from Linda's blog, you know this month's Paper Trail blog hop is featuring the wonderful Ivy Lane paper theme from the new Close to My Heart Spring/Summer 2014 Idea Book.  It's a richly colored theme that includes pinks, purples, and greens accented by a soft natural beige.  While Close to My Heart created a romantic feel for the paper with the artwork featured in the idea book, I noticed turquoise being worn in the photos and decided to highlight the bright color using lagoon on the layout.  I have to beg forgiveness on the photos!!!!  I used Flip Flaps to expand the page but what a challenge to get a photo of the whole layout both opened and closed.  I have such a new appreciation for the photo rooms and expensive cameras, now.  (OK, and I have to admit that while I have patience for scrapping and teaching, I don't have it for photography...LOL)  Any hoot, you'll get an idea of the possibilities using Flip Flaps to add more photos to a layout, the idea of using photos to tell a story, and the ease of adding additional colors to a paper pack.  Then, to get inspired more for Ivy Lane, hop on over to Betsy's blog to see how she used these wonderful colors and patterns.
  

Here a photo of the Flip Flaps closed.

And here is the whole layout with both Flip Flaps open.  The left is a 8" X 12" flap and the right side has a small 3.5" X 3.5" flap to hold one more photo and the journaling.
