Today I chose to use a photo I had been meaning to scrap for a long time. It's a picture of the husband and I taken back in June. I like this photo as we both look totally relaxed and neither of us is blinking or pulling a silly face. The challenge that I used for it was to create a page on plain cardstock and use no patterned paper at all. Any patterns had to be created by stickers, stamps or embellishments. I picked out a box of 'bits' from the cupboard and decided that I would only use whatever offcuts I had saved from previous projects in there. I'm not a great stamper or rub-on girl but I liked the finished result using these things to create the pattern on it. Maybe I need to revisit the stamp shelf at the local craft shop .....
Deb,I love this, that's what I so like about May's class,you get to do things you wouldn't normally do.It's a lovely photo of both of you too,one of my faves of yours xx
