Fighting the White

Several days ago on Scrap That Moment a member challenged everyone to do a white layout. As someone who is always up for a challenge, I thought GREAT! I know white is not exactly my favourite ‘colour’, but here was my chance to experiment with something new and different. At least new and different for me. You see, I have never scrapped with white. I’ve been known to use white photo mats on occassion, and I love those fanatastic ‘lil Davis white chipboard letters that I can’t stop using, but beyond that, white is foreign territory.

So here I am, sitting with every piece of white and white-like paper I own. 3 pieces of mainly white pattern paper (given to me as a gift) and a piece of white cardstock I actually had to go out and buy yesterday. I’m in need of inspiration. I need to know what to do with these colourless pieces of paper. I need a drink….

...so with a Pepsi in hand, I went in search of inspiration and I found Jen Lessinger. Now that woman knows how to scrap with white!!! I’ve been through her galleries several times over and have found easily a dozen layouts that I would like to scraplift (or at least be inspired by). Do I know what I’m doing with my white layout yet? No. But I think I might be able to pull something off. Must scrap now….
