This morning I was flicking through Scrapbook Magazine issue 59 and took a shine to Rachael Elliotts layout. I stripped it all back and made it in to a sketch, earmarked a photo and put the magazine away to ‘forget’ the page as I didn’t want to copy it directly but just to take inspiration from it.
Then this afternoon I had a play and came up with this.
A few close ups of the details...
I triple bordered with a yellow colouring pencil, black extra fine liner and a bananafrog stamp.
Title with papermania letters and 'teen' alphabet stamps.
Stamping at the side and behind the photo in random circles from 'cupcake greetings' and 'build-a-bloom' stamp sets again from bananafrog. I used memento grey fog, shadow ink in soft grey, versa colour in black and canary and dewdrop moonlight white. The canary was far too bright so I inked some on to a craft sheet and mixed it with the moonlight white to soften it.
I'd like to enter this in to a couple of challenges:
Just Traceys Craft Challenge - Hat
Colour Create - Yellow, grey, black and white
That's all for now...
This is a fabulous layout,so many details,love the pic...Thank you so much for your lovely comment...
