Its time for the first
Challenge YOUrself for 2016! Seems only days ago it was 2015!
Since it's the start of the year and everyone's busy after Christmas we have a nice easy challenge for you this month, so here is number 25, anything goes :)
Obviously you need need a photo with YOU in it but other than that no colours, no sketch, no theme, whatever you want goes. :)
For mine I used my newest
Like for ever kit, twenty sixteen, and made this layout, Just relax.
The photo is from Butlins last July, there was a huge play area which was set up like a giant beach with oversized castles, beach balls and a sun lounger where I lay while the kids played. Perfect :)
I used lots of layering in this one to make the photo stand out against he dark background. The kit each month is wrapped in different coloured tissue and I love using this to mount my photos as it is super thrifty and adds texture too.
One of my Chrstmas gifts was a box of mixed, home made enamel dots. I'd tried doing them myself at home and they did NOT work but this other lady had cracked it so she sent me a massive box!
Expect them to show up on lots of layouts in the future :)
What a great layout and you're right the tissue paper is a lovely layer to add - never tried that. I love the giant chair idea too! What a lovely gift you got - they look just like the real thing!
ReplyDeleteLove the layering! You can never have too many enamel dots! What a fab gift xx
ReplyDeleteFab layout!
ReplyDeleteI love your creative layout, Gemma! Your photo is perfect and your design is fabulous. The background spatters really look amazing. I want to thank you and to tell you how happy I am that you are on our design team!
ReplyDeleteGreat layout - I love all the layering.
ReplyDeleteHas your friend done a blog post on her enamel dots? Do you remember all my SIPIDI attempts that failed? I would love to know how your friend has finally cracked how to make them
