March Page Formula Sketch

The March Formula creates a well-balanced two-page spread to showcase at least eleven photos from just FIVE sheets of paper.

Utilizing our formulas is easy: Gather the number of papers indicated, trim and sort them according to the step-by-step instructions, and assemble the finished layout as directed by the sketch.

Round and Round Bonus Layout - Karen


To replicate my two-page spread, gather the following Round and Round papers: Large Pattern Print (Paper A), Gold (B), Dusty Blue (C) and two Sky Blue for the base of the two-page spread (Paper D).

0325 Bonus Formula

I just love this color palette, and the Round and Round prints go with just about anything - including photos of my grandson chopping and (mostly) eating sweet bell peppers!

I rotated the left page 90 degrees (counter-clockwise) so the three squares relocate to the bottom of the page. Doing so transforms the two horizontal mats to vertical. I created the page title with Green from the Round and Round Pack of Panels and alpha dies.

In lieu of two small photos, I straightened the two mini mats on the right page and cropped a single photo to span the space.

Bonus Formula Pages - Tricia


To recreate Tricia's pages, use the following paper assignments: Card Print (Paper A), Gold (B), Dusty Blue (C) and two Manila (Paper D).

As you can see, Tricia rotated the left page 90 degrees as well. Rotating the page clockwise places the trio of squares at the top of the page. An extra horizontal photo tucks into the open space between the square and vertical mats.

On the right, two sentiments from the stamp sheet embellish the mini mats. (Lagoon and Caramel Hybrid Inks)


Both of our layouts demonstrate how versatile each bonus formula can be: Even though Tricia and I used the same formula and paper collection to create our pages, the finished layouts feel unique.

The March bonus formula requires just five sheets of paper and comes together in minutes! The trimming and assembly instructions can be used again and again to make additional pages with paper and supplies you already have on hand.
