Summer fun | Sunkissed Layout | Anna Komenda
Hello everyone! Summer is in full swing in Europe and we are having a lot of sun and warmth. Sometimes even too much for my liking. However, it’s still better than being constantly cold, right? We have a perfect theme for this week over CVS blog and it’s FUN IN THE SUN. And you know I love all the colorful, summer collections and projects! I reached for an older “Sunkissed” collection as it seemed perfect for this job. I still have plenty of papers and some embellishments and I need to squeeze it as much as possible. I think I will have to make a “leftover album” too to finish it of.
I picked a navy paper called “Bright side” and cut a decorative circle with words using my digital die cutting machine. It says “summer fun” all around! I was looking for a perfect background paper but all the ones I got left didn’t match so I took a white cardstock and two Distress Oxide inks: Picked raspberry and Salty ocean and created ombre, circlular effect. My inspiration for the colors came from a swimsuit of my daughter. I didn’t place the circle direclty in the middle, setting it off to one of the corners.
I scrapbooked joyful photos of my daughters riding a waterslide during one of our summer holidays. They were running up and down to slide as many times as possible. They even held a competition who will slide faster. And I was there with the camera as good mamarazzi! My Ephemera Pack is already half empty but I still managed to find two swimsuits in matching colors! Lucky me! I also searched for flowers in pink and blue in my Floral Ephemera Pack.
I also have few Puffy Stickers left so I added them around the photos. The same with Wood Epoxy Button!
This collection also includes beautiful Clear Stickers and I used few of them to embellish the background. You need to be careful with using them of colorful backgrounds as they may change the color, influenced by the one dehind them.
I had so much fun making this page and I love this navy, pink and blue color palette! I must reach for it more often.
That is all for today. I hope you will find some inspiration in my page for all your “fun in the sun” projects!. Thank you so much for sticking out with me and see you in August!
