Sat. 2/16 - Great Blue Heron

I thought the colors for this week were perfect for this photo of a Great Blue Heron that I took last fall. It's such a spectacular bird! Gently blended, this photo flows almost seamlessly into Durin Eberhart's Chenille paper. I've seen several layouts like this recently - with the large photo on top and the ribbon crossways. I wish I could remember their names to give credit.

I used:

Well, you knew I was going to love this bird photo, didn't you? :D It's gorgeous, Aggie. I love the beautiful way you've blended it, and the lovely colors you've used. I especially like your title-work and your overall design. Great page!

I also love the bird photo, and the greens. I also like your treatment with the border and work across the bottom. Great job!

What an amazing photo! I love the stillness of it shown by the reflection. There's a paper behind that? You're right it does blend so well. The bulrushes are a lovely touch.

Gosh, this is pretty!!! Your photo is aweseom -- blue herons are so much fun to watch--so elegant! Nice how you captured his shadow in the water. Love your use of color and that your photo takes 2/3 of the page. The curly-q's at the top of the border are very nice. Great LO!

Beautiful page, Aggie. And, yes, you're right. If you didn't tell us, I wouldn't have noticed the blending at all. Thanks for participating!
