Masculine Page With Feathers

My son, Chris Huntsman with his dang cute boys! 
This page was so much fun to do since I tried so many fun techniques.
I water and ink washed the back ground wood paper, 
then stitched and distressed the edges,
used Cricut to cut a background overlay,
which I inked with pigment inks and dauber
to achieve an ombre effect.
The same inking technique was used to achieve the 
shaded hue on the 'also, I love you'.
And then more stitching right thru the middle of the phrase.
Rock-n-roll technique was used on the fussy cut flowers.
I used this same inking style on the feathers-
choosing both colonial white and kraft paper
added to the uniqueness of each feather.
Add a staple and tie on some bronze thread-
ta-DA! A page to show off four awesome guys!

Sweetheart Sofie


In honor of Valentine's day, which is fast approaching, I thought I would share a fun page I made years ago. Other than the adorable baby girl and the proud Grandpa- the best part of this page is the awful amount of stickers used to decorate the plain white paper. The stickers are from Doodle Bug and the hand doodling is by moi. I purposely cut the annoying background from around the happy Grandpa. Some people would say that is a no-no, but I have been known to do what I please at times. And that pleased me (only because I couldn't come up with a doable alternative). The challenge I give you is to purchase those adorably cute package of stickers the next time you see some that are perfectly fun, and use them ALL on a lay out.
 I promise- You will feel young again!
