Hi everyone! Hope you had a lovely weekend. Mine was great, but very busy. We are getting ready to host our son's 21st birthday party on Saturday. I can not believe how fast these 21 years went. It felt like yesterday that I was holding our first tiny (okay maybe not so tiny) little bundle in my arms for the first time. I am so proud of the wonderful young man he is today. :)
I want to share another DT layout I created for
The Scrapbook Store using the beautiful
Blue Fern Studios 'Blue Fern Garden' collection. I've used a very old photo of my mum with me, my cousin and my brother, taken in 1967.
I've used the
Prima Marketing 'Finnabair - Bubbles' stencil and texture paste on my background. I then painted a variety of watered down inks and mists to create some softness around my photo. The
Petaloo blooms matched in perfectly.
And I just had to use this little
Prima resin angel. These are brand new to the store and oh so cute. :)
The
Blue Fern Studios 'Small Garden Daisies' chipboard is so gorgeous too. I've covered it in a layer of gesso and then inks and mists until I was happy with the result.
Just added a bit of stamping here and there on my page using the
Kaisercraft 'Sheet Music' texture stamp and my page was complete.
Now it's time for bed, as tomorrow is Monday and a work day for me. Thank you for visiting my blog and for all the beautiful comments I always receive. I really appreciate it. Have a wonderful week!
Until next time.
