Tell a story of how you remember a past time.
Emily Pitts doesn’t have a specific story to tell about the lilac bushes in her childhood. Rather, she knows that they represent that time for her.
A single photo of lilacs with show-stopping paper flower embellishments delivers a strong visual punch to accompany her journaling.
Not only has Emily limited her embellishment motifs, but she’s done the same with color. The only colors here are the lavender and indigo hues of the flowers along with shades of orange for the background.
