Up, Up, and Away with Joanne Bartell’s Beautiful New LE Kit Layout

 

Welcome to the Blog!

We are absolutely thrilled to share a breath of fresh air on the blog today with a stunning layout by the incredibly talented design team member, Joanne Bartell! Using our latest Limited Edition Kit, Joanne has crafted a whimsical, pastel paradise that beautifully proves you don't need a colorful print to make a page pop.

In this featured project, Joanne centers her layout around a timeless, classic black-and-white photograph capturing a radiant, joyful moment between two girls. Choosing a grayscale portrait is such a brilliant design choice here—it keeps the focus entirely on their bright smiles while letting the soft pinks, gentle blues, and warm yellows of the kit wrap around the memory like a warm hug.

From the delicate paper clouds and soaring kites to the layered floral clusters and sweet "Carefree" sentiments, every single detail brings this snapshot to life. Grab your favorite prints, dive into your new LE Kit, and let’s get inspired to document those precious, everyday smiles!  Want more info?  Check out Joanne's process here.
