Hello, hello! I'm still here!
Seriously I don't want to sound like a broken record but life's been so busy and time has been hiding from me...I swear!
Anyway, I wanted to share this page I made for Basically Bare back in May (what?! is it June already??). My baby girl needed a passport when she was about 2 months old and nothing but a homemade photo session was going to work! Well it wasn't easy and I had a LOT of adorable photos left over.
I made the background using free digi brushes from the internet, washi tape and doodles. |
I thought the filmstrip chippies from the Basically Bare Parazzi set worked perfectly to show off some of those cute expressions :) I wanted the glossy filmstrip look so I painted both strips with black acrylic paint and then covered them with black UTEE.
The camera got completely covered up with washi tape.
Now, I did eventually get just the shot I needed and I used the black chipboard arrows from Basically Bare to point to the winner :) They already were the color I was looking for so all I did was use some white, sparkly embossing powder on them. Fun, fun!
And I just have to share this...my baby girl just turned one and we held a Dol, or Korean first birthday for her (one of the things that was taking up so much of the elusive thing called TIME!!). Here's photos of her in her hanbok:
Yep, I'm straight up biased but she sure does look cute!!
OK, that all for today! Thank you for stopping by and visiting!
Ooooooh...I love her in her hanbok! She's adorable!
ReplyDeleteAnd how fun is that layout! Love how you used the chipboard to "frame" those cute pics...great use of those digi brushes too!
Pst...you do remember we have a "date" next week? *winks*
Miae, what a neat page! I love the air mail style washi tape! There are so many fun details in the page, I love that I'm still discovering new things. I've had to take infant passports before, and it definitely isn't easy!

ReplyDeleteLOVE the glossy filmstrip of photos and the taped camera is soooo cool! It's wonderful that you are keeping some Korean traditions! Her birthday pics are fantastic...what colours!!!!! Can't wait to see those photos in layouts :)

What a fantastic layout! I love that super gloss that you acheived on the chippie film strip! Looks fantastic!!!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant, Miae! I love how there is so much detail and fun on this layout, but your cutie pie-the subject--is so bright and expertly highlighted! LOVE! I can't believe she is 1 year old already! Happy Birthday!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I am a stranger to digital brushes! I would love to see a little tutorial about using them! (Hint, hint, wink, wink!) Do you have a 12" wide printer? Or do you physically cut and paste printed images? Love what you've done!
Totally adorable!!! That washi tape goes perfect with the passport theme! I just love it all!!! Love the picture of your daughter too! :) xoxo
ReplyDeleteHow cute!!! I really really love the filmstrip pieces, awesome!!! Your daughter is adorable, too. Thanks for stopping by my blog! :) Have a great day!
