i have another layout to share today, from the tips & tricks: fabulous flowers issue from creating keepsakes.
as seen in the Scrapbooking Tips & Tricks: Fabulous Flowers issue, from Creating Keepsakes magazine. copyright creative crafts group. posted with prior permission from the publisher.
this is another layout, where i went digging through older photos, looking for some to re-scrap. i found these 3 photos, along with an additional one, on a plain blue cardstock layout. and it had a vellum title, saying something about friends. that was it. seriously? so i tore off these three photos, and decided to scrap them. this it the girls, with 2 of my past daycare kids.
but more importantly, riana and amanda are friends of my girls. these photos were taken over 8 years ago, when the girls had both been with me for at least 2 years already. and 8 years later, they're still friends, hang out at school, go to each other's birthday parties, and occasionally share the same class.
this layout was part of an article on creating your own unique flowers, by mixing and combining flowers of all different types. to create my flowers, i used a mix of felt flowers, clear plastic flowers, paper flowers, and metal flower grommets. the different textures add lots of dimension to my flowers. and the colors all play off the papers and the photos. i used a few die cut borders for my flower stems.
the pink dot paper is from bobunny, and the rest of the pattern papers are all from bella blvd. it's kind of hard to see in that top photo, but i added tiny alpha stickers to a few of the clouds in the yellow pattern paper, for each of the girls names. the red letter stickers are from jenni bowlin. i love the "school" feel to those stickers.
