High School Graduation (Orange Paperie September Challenge0

Hello All, September has been  a busy month. With being on holidays & everything these is the first layout for me in September.

The Challenge - A mood board. This is the first time I have attempted to gain inspiration from a mood board.



What I liked was the way the greens looked amongst the greys & whites on the Paris streets so I wanted to make a layout using those colours.

 

 This is Me & my Wife at her High School Graduation back in 1994. Have used PP from Kaisercraft After Five Collection & Secret Admirer. Collectables from Secret Admirer. Stamps are also Kaiser.

Word strips saying High School Graduation is PP that I cut to size, then ran through a Dymo 3D labeller & then went over the embossed lettering with a Sharpie.

Thanks for having a look, Hope you like my page.

Bridesmaids

Another Layout for Home. This one was to use Green,, Pink & White. Didn't quite stick to that, but its the final result that matters as it will be what I have to look back on.
This was using The Lakehouse range, as I bought a few sheets & sticker sheet some time ago, Not sure why I bought them, but glad I had them from this.
My current Love for Layering paper seems to be continuing.
Anyway, the photo is My Wifes Bridesmaids.

In Deep Thought

My Attempt at AmyB's Challenge at Home. Used leftover Kaiser Marigold range with a few collectables from Lulu & Roy. Basically diagonally cut top sheet of PP cut out excess then distressed & peeled back & pasted a second sheet underneath. Then used the hole for my photo & embellishments.
We were at Cook Park & Tyler had a seat at a bench when I snapped this photo & I was wondering what he might be Thinking about.
