Finger painting is one of my youngest child's most favourite thing to do.. and he asks to "finger paint" almost daily! So much so.. that we go through soo much plain paper and art books! Not to mention my paint supplies! *grin* And he's not fussy or precious about getting it on his fingers either. In fact I think he rather enjoys using fingers more than an actual paint brush. :)
On this day, I snapped a couple of photos of him creating his own art. But I want to really document his love of dipping into the paint and so I focused in on his little hands. The colours from the patterned papers compliment the paint on his hands so well, that I hardly need to scrap with embellishments. Add a few label stickers from the Jillibean Soup range and an "everyday hashtag" badge from Greatest View, and I was pretty much done.
I love scrapping with layers too (just in case you haven't noticed!!! *grin*) and they leave me with plenty of opportunity to slip in some hidden journaling. What is your favourite thing to add to your scrapbooking layouts? And do you find it a tried and true method? *grin*
Thanks so much for visiting...x
Love this!!! Great photo! You've matched it perfectly! Awesome! :D
ReplyDeleteThis is really lovely, I love your layers and the mix of patterned papers looks fabulous too.. and love the photo, we tend to not take photos of the things our kids do, I remember mine doing finger painting, but I did not even think of taking a photo of it.. and one of my fav things to add to a scrapbooking layout is punched edges, I have a few MS punches now and try and use one on a layout somewhere..
ReplyDeleteAwesome layering and great colors! Love it
ReplyDeleteNo! YOU? Like layers? I would NEVER have guesses....LOL:):):):) gorgeous layers here. And your pic matches right in with the scrummy coloured pp. me? I usually ummmm....I dunno!!!! Usually head into my button box cos no LO feels complete without a badge or button ATM.......
ReplyDeleteYou rock those layers, Leanne!! My jaw was wide open when I saw this layout on the Jillibean Soup blog! Anyways, my jaw was always wide open whenever I saw your layout! This layout is so awesome and I love how you incorporate different pattern and colors and make it work for you!
