This wasn't the photo I was working on, but in an effort to clear my desk, I had stacked photos with backgrounds together & was putting away everything else. As I was sorting through things, each piece that had been pulled out for other layouts seemed to work perfectly with this photo...by the time I had cleared the desk, I had a ready made layout sitting in front of me! Hence this layout turned out completely different to the one I had planned in my head...haha notice NO glimmermist what so ever!!! Though I think I want a little crazy on the inking...still thinking about that one???
Thanks for stopping by...as always, a huge thank you for all your lovely comments! :) They really do make my day x
Happy scrapping!
works well!

ReplyDeleteLooks fabulous, Paula...love the inking (not overboard at all) & the gorgeous damask out the side of the photo...fantastic layering behind the photo too!
ReplyDeleteI love this photo and the page is just perfectly designed for it. And I have to admit, none of my pages ever end up looking like they did in my head before I started.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great method for scrapping????!!!!!! LOVE that flower tucked in & the inking is perfect...I spy yummy tape, too. The big banner flag is FAB, too...this is great all round. A fave, methinks:):):):)
