I have always wanted to try some techniques that professional photographers utilize, but I've never really been able to replicate them well. Today's challenge was to photograph a "Flat Lay" of any subject. I chose to represent "Morning", with a pair of jeans to show a little of that soft fabric-y goodness. I think they came out pretty well. As I was deciding which one to put on the actual page, I was humored to see that the one I ultimately picked was the very first test shot that I took! I took about 20 other pictures, but this one presented the best in my opinion. I guess I should have stopped at number 1. I would have saved myself a lot of time and now my back wouldn't ache so much!

Elements:
graffiti, backgroun paper, Pink flower with blue button, "It's About Time: Tomorrow" Collab

butterfly, foliage, small pink flower, "this is now" washi tape, yellow flower: "It's About Time: Today" Collab

 

I was really struggling with what to photograph for this challenge ... so I'm walking around the house thinking about it, and the third time I stepped on a dog toy I looked down and went - "That's it!"

 

I really enjoyed trying something new! So much better than a picture of me when I'm sick! LOL. Thanks for the challenge:

 

Here's mine:

 

I really love this type of photo! I wish I would have taken photos of my kids' baby clothes and toys like this! Thanks for the fun challenge!

This one really had me stumped.. .So I did not even think about it for 2 days... finally decided to do this treasure box I put together of things I have saved that I thought were cool and had no idea what to do with.. Saw the idea someplace... Stumbled across the beautiful wooden wine box, and knew it was perfect! I have a piece of index card inside the box that tells what everything is... I don't think any of my family even knows I did this.. but it sits on my coffee table.. That said, my family very rarely comes here...

 

Fun challenge, thank you!!

 

I loved doing this Disney outfit flatlay - makes me feel like I'm going to Disney! (if only) (credits in gallery)

 

Thanks for the inspiration! Photo taken and layout scrapped yesterday even though they're about everyone's interests and achievements during a period in the past.

 

fun idea, Em! love tp create my photo! my friend was giving away a few of her books, so I was luck to get 4 new ones for me! I added to the photo my kindle, my glasses and some boomarks for the composition...
