Wild Thing

Happy Valentine's, everyone! Today, I am sharing a layout about our "funny little valentine", Gracie. She keeps a couple of empty nesters laughing at her funny antics and is truly a joy to be around.

I was inspired by the beautiful colors in this challenge and by our precious Gracie Girl. Here is how I solved Case File 248:

Scheme: All five colors used

Evidence: Floral pattern, hearts, Butterflies, leaves, flowers

Testimony: Document something special about the one you love. 

3-D work, fussy cutting, layering and painting are some of my favorite techniques to use in scrapbooking. 

Here, you can see the distressing of the paper. 

Heat embossing of the chipboard can be seen in this photo as well as use of paint to change up the flowers a bit to tone them down and meet the requirements for the color scheme.
