I wanted to share with you my other layout I made for the American Crafts gallery this month. It all started out with this wonderful newsprint paper from the Soho Garden collection. I just happened to feel inspired to play with my water colors, colored pencils, and gelatos--as you can tell I went to town--SO therapeutic and FUN! I knew that I would cover up most of the page with pictures but this paper was one of my FAVORITES out of the collection and I wanted to do something special with it.
Here is my page:this little town is where my mom grew up, where my grandma lived, and where I spent some FANTASTIC summers. It's a town of special memories for me, about 3 years ago we were there for a memorial service for my aunt. I took the time to walk the town with my camera and take pictures of the things that were beautiful or special to me. I ended up printing each of these pictures at a 2" x 3" so that they would all fit. I wasn't sure how I was going to make this layout but it came together and I am VERY pleased with it!
