I did this layout for a crop challenge at 3 Scrappy Boys,
where we were required to scrap photos of ourselves.
I have been sorting through all my old photos & came
across these VERY OLD ones!
I combined it with a sketch from Creative Scrappers
{loving sketches again right now}.
Used paper & embellishments from Glitz Design
- Beautiful Dreamer collection.
Tickets from Purple Pumpkin, inked up a bit,
and the last of my pearls by the yard :(
The kids loved looking at these photos of me -
unfortunately they are practically all I have from
my childhood! How times have changed!!
I used 3 different colours of mists - pink, orange & green.
The trick is a very light hand spritzing at a 30 degree angle,
slightly overshooting the page. Then take off the cap &
tap with your fingernail to achieve the splodgy dots.
