OUAS "Love in Bloom" layout

LOVE IN BLOOM-Spring
Hidden Journaling behind pictures. 

Hey everyone! So I have been challenging myself this week to do

layouts! They have always intimidated me, but

I absolutely love them and find them incredibly inspiring!

And i feel there is no better way to capture a memory!

Like these pictures. THese were taken last spring in TN after my

papaw passed away. I was so incredibly down, but my honey

always finds a way to cheer me up and make me see the bright

side of things! After leaving the cemetary we stopped by  my sisters house, it

was a cold spring day in TN and i was just in a rut. He

got on the trampoline and pulled me up and we jumped around for the longest

time! He snapped me out of me negative outlook and i started

seeing the world in a brighter way. Simple moment, but it has stuck with me!

So i called this layout "love in bloom." In spring time things bloom and come to life

and this is what our love does to me! I hope you like it, be gentle!

I'm a layout newbie Lol!

Here are some close ups!

Hard to tell from one picture, but this layout is super dimensional!

i cut an X into the paper and curled back all of the edges to create a little niche

The sketch had a fence so i created one out of grungeboard, and stamped part of

my title on it...."love"

The banner has the "bloom" on it, and there is a little scrabble tile with the "N"

 This shows the dimension a little more, and there is a hidden journaling tag, that

tells the story of this spring day You can see the top of it here it says "remember"

 i love to hang pearls as a banner!

And these new prima flowers are just so pretty, i did some fussy cutting as well

for lots of flowers blooming!

 

  I had to add a dark edge to this layout in places, because it was a sad moment,

even though my spirits were lifted back up. The black kind of represents a "shadow" if you will.

 

 

this shows some of the texture the empty spaces have. i don't like things flat Lol! i added old dictionary paper and lots of masking and spraying. The paper is websters pages, along with prima tea thyme.
