Best Friends Forever

Hi, Hope you all had an awesome Christmas and New Year. This is my first post of the yr as I took some time away with family. But I am back to show you a layout that I did for Scrapbooking Creations Diva comp that they had at the beginning of last yr. I could not show this layout as it was chosen to be published!!! I ended up with with 2 layouts in that issues, my first and 2nd being published in that mag MADE MY YEAR!!!

This is a pic on my oldest girl first day of Pre Primary. It also has my middle daughter in it. My youngest was just a tiny baby. I just loved this photo and wanted to keep the focus on it.

For the background I randomly put washi tape on cardstock then lightly painted over it with white paint. Then I mixed some texture paste with paint and painted that over a stencil.

The A2Z Scraplets was gessoed and lightly painted. I then glued the pearl trim through the word friends. TIP: Use a glue with a nice sharp point, unlike me who did not and it all ended up a nightmare lol. I then added some embellishments and layout done. The background took the most time.

Well that's it from me. I am thinking its nearly time for a give away so watch this space. Also A2Z Scraplets is under new ownership, so check an eye on their facebook page (HERE) When they get to 1000 likers there will be a giveaway!!!

Thanks for looking

Belinda
