Pictures of our horseback riding adventures were not great, the batteries died before the kiddos even got on the horse!!! These 3 pics on the layout are the best I could do; thankfully I was surprised with a new camera for my bday, hopefully this won't happen again soon! Didn't even get a chance to snap pics of the 3 other cousins that were there with us that day- have I mentioned how excited I am that I got a new camera? This layout SOOOO very quick and easy thanks to the great inspiration out in blog world. First I started with this sketch from Crafty Sketches, and then used this color scheme from Creative Prompts. Olive, greys and whites would never have crossed my mind, but I love how they work together, and the lines on their photo insiration really went well with the sketch. I decided to do a bit of embossing in silver, as suggested by Fussy and Fancy. You can see it on the border across the top of the photos, in my title, and the flourish in the bottom left corner.
And here's the 2nd layout I have to show you:
No special stories or techniques with this one! Used a fun and funky star paper on the bottom, and then cut out 3 of the stars to use as accents at the top- quick and cheap way to embellish your page and it's SURE to match!! I added a little safety pin to each star as a little added embellie, and then did some faux stitching around the top edge and scallop. I probably would have preferred pulling out the sewing machine for ACTUAL stitching on the layout, but my bobbin needs to be threaded, and I am clueless on this. Need mom to come over for this one, so for now, faux stitching it is!! =) T
