Make a Wish

Hey there! I'm wrapping up June with one last post. It's time for another Printable Roundup at Paper Issues. Did you know that every month  new set of printables are released that you can download for FREE? Today, I used one from the March Crop set. 

Since this page is about me, I chose one that's a good reminder about happiness, but always with a bit of sarcasm.

Frames. I've been loving frames lately. This is something I resisted for a long time. I didn't want to cut my photos to fit them, blah, blah, blah. Now that I've figured out how to use them to embellish a page, I lOVE them! And that's exactly how I used the big black frame here. The printable and frame are the only all black items on the page, so they stand out! 

I had a little bit of Simple Stories I Am left that I used for this page. I created a sort of wonky block across the page with my photo in the center. I surrounded the photo  with several frames, then filled in the block with other ephemera bits, stickers and a wood piece. Its been a nice change to be more free and less symmetrical on my pages lately. 

As always, thanks for stopping by my creative view this month. It's been a fun journey into summer. I hope you'll join me in July.It's sure to be a great month!
