Happy Mother's Day

Today, I woke up to a wonderful homemade breakfast care of my special husband and children. But this is quite usual, as my hubby likes to take care of us in this way. I am one lucky woman.

To all the other mothers out there, Happy Mother's Day!

I am sharing a layout I created about me! What a surprise....I don't think I've ever really done this or done it well. First off, I have a hard time finding an image of myself....I am the camera person in my house, so there are plenty of images of everyone else, none of me. This picture was taken last year at ScrapFest during a class with Jenn Star.

This layout also came out of a challenge given to the Lisa's Scrap Shack Team.

CHALLENGE:

Design a project that represents you. Use colors and patterns that express your personality and express you best.

I hope that what you see in this layout can give you some insight into who I am, not only by the journaling, but the messy, layered, distressed elements presented. My favourite colours are throughout, blue, chocolate brown and pink.

SUPPLIES FROM LISA'S SCRAP SHACK:

Paper: Bo-Bunny - Love Shack - Funky

Paper: Fancy Pants - Delight - Thoughtful

Paper: WRMK - Tiffany's

Flowers: Petaloo Box Blends - Blue and Teal (brown flowers)

Flowers: Prima - Artful Collage - Raphael

Bye for now. :)

Messy and layered I might grant you but I hope you're not distressed, too! ;o) Love the LO and the photo of you is great!
