This summer is absolutely whipping by! My oldest is busy with summer camps, travels and good ol' hanging out with me :D and my youngest has offically started walking...sigh..
During all that excitement I've managed to make a page that I'm going to throw into TWO challenges! Oh yeah, I'm proud ;) I'm playing along with CSI case file no. 28 and Creative Scrappers! CSI offered a color scheme I would've never thought to work with and I got just the design inspiration I needed when I saw the CS sketch!
My oldest daughter has always loved helping her dad construct things...in fact for her 2nd birthday, we got her a tool set and table! Of course that was years ago but she still loves constructing stuff. In these photos, her 2.5 yr old little self is helping her dad make a gate...she even put on her "hard hat" for the job ;)
For my EVIDENCE I used robots, circles, repetition, and metal. For my testimony I used repetition in my journaling:
Little Sophia at work....buzz buzz! whirl whirl! bang bang! She love to help appa build things...
I took the black bottle caps and covered with gesso and a coat of Glimmer Glaze in Basically Bare Coconut Shell. Next I wrapped floral wire around in loops. |
Aren't these robots so cute? These are free dingbats off the net called Tombots that I printed, colored and cut. |
Virtually impossible to see but I put down a large helping of textured paste and smooshed (the official description) the letters into the paste. |
I'm so excited by the splatter effects of Distress Stains! Very satisfying to do this to my pages! |
That's my post for today! Thank you for stopping by!
This is sooooo cool Miae! I love those splotches and fun little bits you added... How cute that she put on her "hard hat" too...lol :)
