Just Add Ink Challenge #16 - Siblings
I chose the Fan Fair DSP here not only because I love the vintage feel, but because it has both pinks and blues in it - my intention was to do an awesome layout with all four of my children, three girls and my new boy.
However . . . I discovered unhappily I have zero pictures of the four of them that are suitable for a layout. Must remedy that! So I altered the plan and went for one showing the loving relationship between my three daughters.
First of all, I didn't have the right black paper for the upper right hand corner, so I did a quick buy of a black and white DSP pack on My Digital STudio and printed it out on vanilla cardstock! EAsy! And I could even adjust the pattern size to just what I wanted.
The ribbon roses have come out to play again - love those!_ and this time I dyed them with Rose Red and a bit of Early Espresso, just for fun.
And did you notice the Vintage Lace Trim? Now in More Mustard. Actually I just spritzed it with the ink refill and it turned out beautifully. Love that technique!
My Title was fun to do. I used our chipboard and the STampin' Up! alphabet dies to create a simple title. I used the Vintage Trinkets to create a little hanger for the heart (I found this idea off a neat page off Pinterest, which I didn't save so can't give proper credit).
I have felt the nudge for a little while now to include more journalling on my pages, so here we go. I included a hidden tag here with some personal thoughts for the girls. Hidden tags are the perfect way to add things you may not want the whole world to be able to see.
Please join us for a scrapbookign class! I'll be teaching this and other layouts in May.

Oh, I'm so glad you journalled - to me it's one of the most important part of a layout. Your girls are beautiful and you have created a beautiful layout to match. Thanks for playing along with us at Just Add Ink.
