Layout Family


In this layout I have used splashes of yellow to bring this layout to life, And to give it that
little girl feel I used a ballerina stencil with yellow paint mixed with gel medium. I also
cut up a scrapiniec chip board ( which I love) and painted it yellow to add that splash
of colour


Also I have doted some roman numerals around and a small measuring tape to the bottom left corner,
the word "family" inspired me to use this photo of my mother in law when she was a child growing
up in England during the war.

The paper I used was from 7 Dots Dreamer Collection.The colours I chose were Blue, Green and Yellow

This layout is the first one iv done in a very long time, so used some challenges to help inspire me.
I would like to thank the 3 challenge community's below .Also there are some close up at the end of this post.
