I pulled out the Summer Bliss line from Echo Park for this one. I have so many pool photos to scrap from over the years, and this bright collection is just perfect. What I love about this sketch is that I can scrap lots of tiny photos and have room for lots of embellishments. These loud and bold colors are just my thing...I love them!
The bottom piece with all the text on it is from another new EP line... Capture Life (the solid black, white and grey one). I watercolored it to match all my patterned papers. I love how it turned out. I also stamped around my design and added more watercolor around the edges. I like how it reminds me of pool water being sloshed around.
Echo Park always has such fun lines, and the brads and enamel dots are so fun. I think one of my favorite pieces, though, is this fishy border!
I decided to just hand write part of my title and fussy cut it out. I like the result :) I love my Cameo...don't get me wrong! But sometimes I just want something different, and I don't want to use pre-made letter stickers all the time. You just never know what kind of mood you'll be in or what you feel like doing on a certain page sometimes!
I love this pretty red brad. I love how it's paired up with pink...I wouldn't really think of doing that unless I was making a Valentine page, but I like that the red is mixed in with the summer pinks. I added some pop dots to that cut sunshine to give it some dimension, and the cute black stickers here and there are from the DIY Boutique line from Simple Stories (another amazing bright collection).
Here's one more shot of the watercolor...such a fun, fast and easy way to add color to any page :)
