Love - You and Me

I'm on a Roll

I've managed to combine 8 challenges for this layout!!

~see challange list and details below~

First of all - this is what I created

After getting the layout 'more or less' how I wanted it I decided it was too 'clean'.   So I smudged some pale blue and pink Stickles glitter around the two photographs to mess it up a bit.

This is the 1st time I have managed to scrap a photo of our wedding.  I've always struggled on where to start so I am quite pleased hwo this turned out.  With a brother, son and grandson I am so used to doing 'boy' layouts, so it was fun to do such a girly layout.

I used a the September sketch from Stuck Sketches

Remaining Challenges

Scrap around the world: September Mood Board 

I took inspiration from the wings, pink and metal and used them on my layout.

Colour Stories Inspiration - Case File: 138

Colour Scheme - All colours used

Evidence – Woodgrain/Damask/button/Paint

Testimony – Tuck your story into an envelope

Scrap it with a Song

Song Title/Lyrics Challenge – Imagine Dragons – On top of the World

    inspired by lyrics: love somebody and title ‘on top of the world’ which is how you feel on your wedding day.  

Scrap it Girl – Use Stencils or Mask - I used a TCW – Mini Wood Grain Stencil on scrap white paper with shimmer mist.

Paper Wings – Use Ribbon Twine or Trim – Used bakers twine on journaling tag, l on love and wrapped around woodgrain heart.

Challenge YOUrself  - You must be included in your layout - the photograph used is of husband and myself on our wedding day.  The link to fall is that my husband and I got married on September 7th (we've just had our 18th wedding anniversary) so this is a favourite time of your for me.  Also we tend to visit the west coast or the islands of Scotland around this time of year which holds many happy memories for me!
