I got to work on a layout last night for a little bit. NOT LONG...since I have like....oh....FIVE kids! It was for Liz Qualman's Sketch on the Little Yellow Bicycle Blog. It is a great sketch...and it was so fun to work with! I used LYB Generation Z for the majority of it...and I tossed in a tad bit of "Lucky Me" and "Boardwalk" for good measure. :) Here is Liz's original sketch...
I loved that it had space for 3 photos! I thought about using 3 different photos from my son's birthday party, but then I came across this photograph of Dayne...shades pulled down..him looking "Cool". I could not resist using this one!~ I think I got exactly the impact I wanted by using it 3 times on the page...makes me think of Sylvester Stallone....or Robert Dinero.... "You talkin' ta me?" LOL
I used my new handy dandy I-top to create a few brads for the layout using the Boardwalk collection, and I even used a bit of Tattered Angels Mists...which I RARELY do. LOL. I just thought the splatters were the perfect finishing touch to this BOY page. Since boys are all about splatters and splats! LOL
I think I really like the end result...spatters, splats and all! Thanks for looking...have a FANTABULOUS weekend!
