Hello crafty Friends! Welcome on the last day of February. For some of you it means summer is coming to an end and for some more lucky (like me 🙂 ) it means spring is getting closer and closer ending up our winter misery. I so miss the warmth, the sun and the colors and can’t wait for all of this to come. In the meantime I am taking some energy bites by reliving our last year summer adventures. I found this fun series of photos of my younger daughter Maja sliding the slide in waterpark and decided to scrapbook them using my all time favorite “Sunkissed” collection.
I started with a white background papers and splashed it with two shaded of blue mists. When I was waiting for it to dry, I took one of the pattern papers called “Good vibrations” and cut out my title using digital die cutting machine. When it was done, I added a layer of foam adhesive to make it pop from the background.
Each of five photos is backed with a different patter paper from A5 Paper Stack. I just love this product as I do not need to cut into whole 12*12 paper to get only a piece of it. What is even better – patterns in A5 Paper Stack are slightly different than in 12*12 Paper Pack! So you have even more colors and patterns to choose from.
After adding title and photos, I started embellishing everything using my leftover Ephemera Pieces (I am running really low on them). I found matching bathing suit, umbrella, rainbow and few word strips. As you can see, I didn’t spend much time on embellishing this page. Big title and multiply photos make it quite busy already.
When I was done with adding embellishments, I noticed that page isn’t balanced well with busy bottom part and empty space on the top. I was wondering what to do, and then idea strucked me. As this page is abour water splashing on the slide, I can add a dripping water! I took “Sunny days” paper and hand cut a row of “water” with tiny little droplets.
I was crossing my fingers it doesn’t look scarry, more like a slime on halloween page, but it turned out OK. I took white gel pen and added a bit of shine to the title and strip of water. The page was done! I am happy how it turned out and that another memory has beed scrapbooked!
That is all for today. Thank you so much for spending your precious time with me and see in in March!
