#coolkids

Good evening everyone. Tonight I'm showing off a layout I worked in this weekend. It's a LO about my son and his Auntie, one of my best friends, when they took a Selfie after seeing a movie together. I love this picture. They just look like they are so cool.


This picture has been hanging around waiting to be scrapped for a a year (I didn't add the date to my  LO until after I took the picture - July 2013). Because I used an older photo and a Noel Mignon it that has been hanging around since June, I decided to enter this LO in The Studio Challenges clear up challenge.

I used a sketch from Stuck?! Sketches that was designed by one of my favorite sketch designers, Laura Whitaker. I took the sketch and flipped it (I admit, I have issues with banner points pointing up). I had lots of fun playing with all the layers. I used an older Noel Mignon kit that I hadn't worked my way through yet. I love the colors!


Those green 3-D glasses were perfect! My son loved them.
I used Heidi Swapp's Color Shine in teal to color the Doilie. It made it much more interesting than plain white.


I love this little group of fun embellishments. You will also notice a little Heidi a Swapp glitter frame tucked under the picture. I'm using this LO for challenge #87 from Red Carpet Studio . The challenge was to use something glittery. Not only did I use the glitter frame, but the title is made from green, glitter Thickers.


You can't get much more glittery than that, right? I used a yellow acetate # sign and dabbed a bit of teal ink on it to calm the color a bit. I love how it blended so well with the green letters.

Thank you for taking a look at my layout. If you like my work, please take a moment to follow my blog. Thank you!
