| Dad is Love Because I love Basic Grey paper and monograms I had to use these for a Father's Day layout to honor the man in my life. The challenge was using vellum. I have not used vellum in a layout for several years. I have to say I am happy and will go back to vellum for that muted look from time to time! Another challenge was using stamps in a layout. I am not a stamper so I did a little quote. This is an area I will need to really work on. Last I want to point out the photo corners. They were made with small punched tags and have eyelets set in them. I was going to stitch them but did not have time so I chose to used a dressmakers tracing wheel to perforate a stitched look at each corner. I used direct to paper ink (chalk pad) to darken the faux stitching . |
