Summer

Hi, popping in with another layout to share. I joined in with The Studio Challenges again on Sunday as our theme was Summer. Summer says to me sunny days and holidays so I went with a photo I took in Croatia on holiday last year. I used inks on the background, blue to look like the water in the photo and a bit of yellow to brighten it up. I did a bit of mixed media treatment on it again with some stenciling, stamps and paint splatters.
I will let you into a little secret, it wasn't going to have the blue border around this page but I was sticking something down and the paint splatters weren't quite dry and didnt realise and I got black paint on my hand and then I touched the page... eek nightmare! Anyway it was lucky it was on the edge so I could cut it off and add the background border to it, luckily I had the right colour to match! In the end I think it helps the layout so disaster avoided!

The design team have more inspiration over on the The Studio blog and you have until 14th August to join in with us for this month challenges so there's plenty of time to get creating, we would love to see what you make.

Thanks for looking!
Back soon xx
