My Creative View: Family

Tuesday, August 26, 2014

Just a quick one tonight. I am determined to play along with ONE challenge in this crazy month called August! I started this LO on Aug 1 and I finally finished it today!

These fun papers are courtesy of Ben Franklin Crafts & Frames. The idea for the page is thanks to Scrap Our Stash: Use a selfie and a pre made frame.

Well, we called this photo a "groupie" because what is plural of a "selfie?" This is my family in Old Sacramento this past July. It was really a treat to all be together. With no one around to ask, we all scrunched in while my sister stretched her arm as far as she could to get us all in the shot. The pre-made frame is the small wood veneer under the title.

The sunburst became the primary embellishment, so I added some monochromatic bits in a few places to give it a little focus and shine. The clouds and sun are indicative of the summers day.

Thanks for looking at my creative view today. I've got a few days left in this crazy month. I wonder if I'll get any more scrap time...stay tuned
