Lovely Time - Mulitiple Challenges

This is a layout I created using the following challenges:

Colour Stories Inspiration - #59

 I used: Frames and Distressing as evidence and frame your story as testimony

     -----------

Childs Play Challenges - Art Supply Challenge - Doilies

 -----------

Clear it Out Tuesday - Use two or more ribbons on your project

-----------

Frosted Designs - Use bold colours and bold patterns on a card, layout or project

-----------

Scrapbook Challenges - Challenge 331

 -----------

Additional Photos:

 I painted the tree (but not to carfully) as I knew I was going to heat emboss over the top it.  I used La Blanche & Ranger Dylusions stamps to add texture to the trunk and green part of the tree.

 I used a Glitz transparancy as a frame and had yellow lace ribbon just peeking out of the back it.

Ranger Liquid Pearls was dotted on Maya Road blossoms.

Distressed edges of cardstock then rubbed gold paint dabber on edges, I also dabbed onto red alphas to distress.

Doilies (Lakeland I think)

Christmas Cheer - Colour Stories Inspiration #56

This is the second layout I have done for Colour Stories Inspiration #56

When I was selecting photos for the colour challenge I couldnt choose between the two so I scrapped the one of my grandson playing with my camera for the Scrap it with a Song design team challenge. Find it here

The photograph for my second layout I used is of my son and was taken when he was about 4.  I think the black and white photo really stands out against the colourful background.  He looks so sweet (shame they don't stay that way)

A closer view on some of the details:
I used my Cricut to cut these letter tags out.

I made a little envelope out of vellum

Evidence:  Dashed Lines, String, Dangle Something
Testimony: Translucent Story Holder

I used the following products for this layout:

MME - So Sophie - Anything for You - Reliable Red Paper

Windsor & Newton  - Gesso

Quick Quotes - Clips & Tags - Irresistable - Cherish Tag

Range Ink - Jet Black

Tsuikineko - Dew Drop - Brilliance Ink Pad - Pearlescent Sky Blue

Vellum

MME Tag Embellie - You have such a Boyish Charm'

Scrap Cardstock - for letter tags

Bakers Twine
