Hello lovely Friends,
When the “Make a Splash” collection got introduced on the blog & on the socials I was in love in a heartbeat as was my daughter Abbey who wants to be a mermaid when she grows up. Purples & Teals are my favorite colors to scrap but really hard to photograph. For this layout I used two pictures of Abbey in a swimming pool in our back garden last summer.
Born to be a Mermaid:
This layout was a copy of a layout that I created a couple years ago. The big “Mermaid” word was made with a very old alphabet tool named the colluzzle maybe some of you don’t even know it. {I am a huge fan of the old stuff} I also really love to use chipboard pieces and other mixed media related products on my layouts.
How I made this layout, I took a sheet of the 12x12 collection and distressed the edges then I took a sheet of the solids and trimmed that one of about 1,5 cm then I made some big tearing pieces throughout that sheet after I did that I took out another piece of the solids and placed them behind the tearing pieces.
After that I added a couple of stamps under which one designed by my all time favorite artist Gabrielle Pollacco {the water drops} and a splash stencil to fit my layout. I matted the photos with three layers and I placed some cheese cloth underneath them.
I also stitched around the edges of my photos and matted the phrases from the collection with a couple of layers. To finish off my layout I added some sequins and dark blue diamante gems.
