Hmm this is going to be interested. I think the subject matter will be the most difficult - snow and weddings are the first things that come to mind and it doesn't snow here. ;-) Thinking cap on.

@Justagirl, what about journaling? Can that be black? Or should I just add my journaling after posting my layout?

Nevermind, I just found it in your original post.

Challenging but fun! It took getting pieces from MANY kits to make it.

What a fun challenge! I loved going through my kits to pick and choose what white items I wanted.

In the instructions there are several references to "your photo." Does that mean we cannot do multi-photo layouts?

@littlekiwi - you can also adjust the papers to cool them down a bit, raise the "blue" just a smidge, and it will take the cream right out. I'm using similarly hued papers from Sara Gleason, and making them just a hair more blue did the trick!

Great advice!

I hope this is right...

how do you recolor to white - i desaturate an item and its black or gray. change brightness get you whiter but you lose the texture

you said no cream but to me the sample page and most of pages already posted look more cream than white

Zanthia, there is a color swatch and these colors should be fine:

There is also issues too sometimes with some monitor callibrations...so if the paper has a "cream meaning yellow tinge" that is a warm tint.. to whiten it, you can add a blue filter to it or hue adjustment to make it more white than cream.

How I changed, for example, my black ribbon to white: On the rasterized layer of the black ribbon selected in the layer pallet, I held the ctrl/cmmd key and pressed I.. that inverts the color from black to white. I then clipped a curved adjustment layer to the white layer and lightened it a bit and tweaked it a little to keep the texture. It is not always the easiest depending on the element.

Perhaps there is another answer that is better for you, but that is how I adjusted elements I was using that weren't white to begin with.
