Today, I have a layout to share that I made for
I loved this photo and started thinking of ideas for a card.
But then, I realized that I really loved it as inspiration for a layout.
I started with some photos that Austin took of us in January.
I'd just wanted a photo of me reading to Sage & Jonah, as it's something we do almost
every night.
However, Jonah decided to be a little goofy while Austin was taking the photos!
For a change, I didn't use any patterned paper.
I used some Bazzill card stock (for the background) & PTI card stock for the rest.
I typed our names using my typewriter and then stamped a heart from
Ali Edwards' Technique Tuesday Incredible stamp set.
I stamped the heart again in red and then stamped the date with my date stamp.
The Good Times and flower image is from Basic Grey/Hero Arts Sunshine stamp set.
These stamps are all from the AE Incredible set.
I copied the poster from the inspiration photo almost identically, but
I had to line everything up. ;)
For this, I used my Mama Elephant Inline Alphabet dies.
Thanks for looking!
Leigh, this layout is AMAZING! Every single time you make a scrapbook layout, I get SO tempted to try scrapbooking again! :)
ReplyDeleteI have to agree Leigh - the inspiration is *perfect* for a layout, and your layout is a *perfect* representation of the inspiration!! Love all your frames and the intermix with stamping and die cut letters (I totally love that poster too, hence my own creation for the challenge!). I am so happy to see you enter the challenge again!! Thanks so much for playing to Cure The Monday Blues!
