Hello :) I just realized I forgot to share this St. Patty's Day page here on my blog from last month. It bugs me because no matter how many times I photographed it, I couldn't get the lighting right for some reason. The right side is darker than the left. I finally gave up and just edited it the best I could without overexposing the photos. Some layouts photograph perfectly while others give me a hard time. I photograph mine in front of a big bay window with natural light, but sometimes they just don't turn out that great.
Oh, well...you still get the idea of all the colors, right? :)
I created this page for a challenge at My Scraps and More. Obviously the girls were dressed in their "lucky" colors, so I decided to use my Cameo to cut out a big shamrock out of cardstock. I watercolored a green piece and backed it. Then I went crazy with rainbow colored washi tape over on the side....I really had no thoughts about this one...I just started sticking and painting. Usually I love a rainbow, but something about this page just bugs me...haha.
I do love these hearts! I stamped and Elle's Studio heart stamp with embossing ink and heated gold embossing powder over it. Then I cut them out. Super fun way to make your own embellishments! I also traced around the shamrock with a gold pen. I'm sort of on a gold kick these days :)
This sort of went wrong here, too. Stamped more hearts to emboss....and didn't realize the gesso I had used over the tape wasn't completely dry. So the glitter stuck to it. Geez! I act like I've never made a scrapbook page before...haha! Rookie mistakes here.
Some REALLY old loopy Doodlebug alphas here and a Cameo cut. I do love that Queen & Co. rainbow striped washi tape....although it tears really easily when I'm trying to peel it from the roll.
Thanks for stopping by and listening to me rant about this page....haha. Have a great day!
Missy this looks perfect to me! I can't see any difference. I love your style, all the layers and the little extras! Your pages are always awesome! All the best!http://mybeaner.blogspot.ca/
