Capture the Moment(s) by Fiona Johnstone

Hello everyone

Happy Hump day! I attended a retreat a few weeks ago and while there I decided it would be a good idea to create two identical layouts at once. I thought it would be more productive (it wasn't - haha!). I had two photos taken the same day of each of the kids, so the idea was hatched from that and I have created a boy and a girl layout that are the mirror image of each other.

Capture the Moment (1)



For this layout I first chose my papers - from the gorgeous Life is Beautiful collection by Fancy Pants - then created a light watercolour background effect with some spray inks, followed by some sploshes of colours that complimented the papers.


I've used a few embellishments from the ephemera pack:

And my boy layout, a mirror of the previous:

Again I have found my papers, his time using a variety of patterns from a few different collections; then created a complimentary background - I've focused on the green in this instance as it is a softer colour than the red and navy.

I've used some 2Crafty chevrons which I've inked with inks in complimentary colours, and made a little banner with patterned paper and a piece of ephemera. 


Thanks for visiting
Till next week
