PRETTY PAGES FROM THE PINK REPTILE GALLERY | by KAREN

Hi Everyone, hope you are enjoying August where ever you are. I was very envious of those who got to view the eclipse this month, we must wait another 10 years before we get one here. The weather here is slowly turning towards spring, my bulbs are just showing, cannot wait for a bit of sunshine! One good thing about winter is it a great enabler to both scrap and admire the work of others. There is so many great pages out there! It was tough coming up with just three for Pretty pages this month but here we go – This month’s challenge has thrown up some wonderful pages – this one from RJMJ is such an eye catcher! The graphic feel as well as the 80’s vibe (love me some 80’s stuff!) the layering and offset frames are wonderfully proportioned, such a cool work of art - Barbaraj has also joined in on the challenge. The classic black and white stripes are not something I would normally associate with a beach photo but Barbara has nailed it! The black and white add a dramatic backdrop to such a lovely photo- almost like an optical illusion and the pops of colour – stunning! Finally a gorgeous photo from louso, highlighted beautifully with mostly neutrals, but the texturing – sigh – so good… The stitching, the feathers and the restrained paint, love this so much! Thanks for looking, don’t forget to pass on some love next time you are browsing the galleries, we all get a kick out of someone else admiring our work. Have a wonderful month, catch you next time!
