Happy Little Moments




Finally I have a project that I am allowed to share :))) I love the new challenge blog 'Life, Paper, Scrapbook' and this page is based on their current colour challenge. Here ar the colours :



Now who could resist this fresh, bright combination ? I had these photos that I took on a resent trip to Kelly Tarltons aquatic world. I loved the photo of Benji and Chris looking at the penguins especially and the colours went so well with the boys clothes.
I dry painted and stamped my background, then I tried a technique that I have seen a lot lately, really loved  and never used myself - doodled circles. I wasn't sure how the doodles would turn out so I used pencil to draw with (it matched the grey shade in the colour combo too). I think they look quite cool ??


 I layered up strips of paper and my photos down the righthand side of my page and added some detail and a chippie title to the left side to balance out the page.


The title word 'Happy' is a 2crafty product. They have a huge selection of pre-cut titles and phrases available to chose from and they always look stunning!
I journaled on stickers and added a few stamped details to complete the page.



Thanks for dropping by today and I hope hat you are having a great week :)
