It's been a while since I've used one of
Shimelle's Starting Points as the basis for a layout, so I decided to try the
new one posted this week. I almost always choose my photos first, then pull papers for my layouts, which is what I've typically done even when using a Starting Point. However, this time I simply pulled out my green papers (because it looked like the tallest stack!) and chose papers to create this background. [Not sure why the background insists on looking blue in the photos!]
Then I thumbed through my storage binders to find a photo and ended up with this completed layout.
Journaling reads: During Jeff's visit to Texas, we spent Sunday afternoon at Buchanan's Antiques and Collectibles Market in Lewisville. Robbie and Jeff enjoyed hunting for toys together (and goofing off a little, too).
It all came together beautifully.
ReplyDeleteLove this! You really layered it up from the original starting point!
ReplyDeleteI thought this was one of the more interesting starting points, and you've done an excellent job with it!
ReplyDeletewow, you took it to an entirely different level, love it, Melissa :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely page Melissa! I must do more of Shimelle's starting points too!
ReplyDeleteGreat layout! I haven't use many of Shimelle's starting points but I should because yours looks wonderful.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely and fun layout! I just love your product choices Melissa!
ReplyDeleteI took note of Shimelle's starting point this time around too. I hope I can come up with a page half as interesting as that one.
ReplyDeleteLovely layers - min is still on the drawing board
