My boys!

Good afternoon everyone,

How are you all today?  I have been busy busy busy trying to get ahead with my DT projects and have been neglecting the housework! Is that ok? lol  I do have a quick layout to show you though.  These are my boys (hubby and son). They love to sit on the rocks at the beach. Personally, i shake from fear whenever i go near them so i tend to stay on level ground and take the snaps!  My son was fascinated with what was at the bottom of the rocks (sand or water?) lol 


Supplies:

Paper: DCWV collage musings stack pack
Die cuts: Tim Holtz
Inks: Tim Holtz distress ink - walnut stain & Tattered Angels glimmer mist -meadow green.
Embellishments: K &Company -
dragonfly and butterfly

Thank you for dropping by to visit and a big warm welcome to my new followers. 

Take care

     Hugs,

Echo Park layout

Good afternoon all,

This is my second post for today and it is a layout.  The layout i promised to show you on Friday and forgot to post! If you want to see my 'baby girl' card for today, please scroll down. 

As for the layout, i actually made it whilst i was attending Iris Babao UY's workshop last week.  I must admit, when i first saw this, gesso/ripped muslin technique i had my reservations.  It is nothing like my 'normal' style but hey ho, i gave it a go and it has grown on me! lol  It is great to share techniques and learn from others and i sure did learn a few new tricks of the trade.   I love this Echo Park paper collection too, it is ideal for masculine layouts. 

What do you think? Would love to hear your comments...
