But here are two i have done today, I used the same background technique for both pages, marvy metallic pens dabbed on the card, spritzed with water until they ran together and then I placed 'cling film' over the top and scrunched it... left to dry, Voila! a beautiful background. I used the same colours on both.. one was white card the other black, so they look completely different.
Yvonne's theme was 'Memories'
I have had this 'photo stamp' for a while now but have never known quite how to use it, but she looks like she is daydreaming and thinking of times past, so she seemed right to use here. The background is so lovely I decided to make them as much of the page as the focal image, so both layouts are simple and unfussy.
Cindy's theme was 'Women'
and the wave is a quote by I can't remember who ???? but I altered it to suit her!
So sorry girls that you have had to wait for your fianl pages, not sure these are worth the wait but I hope you like them a little bit!
They are great Nicks, I lurrrves them. Debs H

Both of these are fantastic!! The backgrounds are amazing. I can never manage to make photo stamps work, how did you do it??? When I scan mine they always look like a pile of dots.
ReplyDeleteHave you had all your pages by now?
Do you know how Duckface is, - I think I have lost her email, and her blog is for invited members only now, so I can't even contact her on that as she hasn't invited me (boohoohoo:o( )
