Silly, sweet, spunky, adorable, funny, lovable.....how do you describe the people and events in your life? Using adjectives, or descriptive words, can be a great way to choose a title or even journaling. You can use a list of adjectives to describe one person, or how about one adjective to describe each of several people on a single layout? I have yet to run out of ways to describe Kieran, it seems like every day I find another word that applies to him. One that always works though is "sweet"
Celeste also used the same word on this digital page
If you're a bit stumped for journaling, especially on a portrait page, how about using a list of adjectives like Amy did here?
The tags and words act not just as journaling, but also as a design element.
Monika also used a variety of adjectives to describe her daughter but she made a 4"x4" minibook, with one description to a page.
You can see more here
Angie took another approach and used one word to describe all the men in her life
Adjectives aren't just for personality traits either as Celeste shows here
And sometimes we need to higlight those less, uh, sweet traits of our loved ones
I find that adjectives are also great for doing All About Me pages
Now head on over to see what today's expert, Angie has in store for you on the Ella blog.
