One moment I was leading the race and the next moment my head disappeared under water and I came up spluttering…
We were having fun in the pool after a hectic course of cheese making on Saturday. My two sisters and three brothers with their husbands and wives decided last year that we wanted to do something together and we chose cheese making since most of us were interested in the process. Little did we know…
Let’s just say that cheese making is far more involved than I am prepared to invest at this point in time. But we had loads of fun and after Sunday lunch tried to take a family picture. I say ‘tried’ because we ended up with a lot of funny, funky pictures… but a proper family portrait? Well, we’ll just have to try again next time. Promise!
However, the pictures were perfect for my layout this week 😉
I used stickers from Echo Park and paired it up with paper tape from Bazzil Basics.
Slits in the background provided a place to slip cards with the months of the year and some journaling on it into. I lined the slits with dotted tape in the same colour as the background that draws the attention to it.
The title was stamped and highlighted with white and I added black shadows when the paint was dry. Stickers on top of the stamped title repeat the title for added detail.
Now all that remains to do is to live, love, laugh, pray, play, pause… and then start all over again!
