This Boy using Jillibean Soup 2 Cool for School by Kerryn Fry

Good morning everyone. Today I've created my second page using Jillibean Soup. The 2 Cool for School collection is the perfect boy range,  it's colourful and bright, with great patterns. The recent photos are of Mr now 14 playing soccer.

I have started with my favourite background, Bazzill Kraft Cardstock.

The background effect has been created using the Chevron Crafters Workshop 6x6 template 

to tie in with the chevrons on the patterned paper Wild Child.

I've then selected Distress Oxide Broken China, Peacock Feathers, Faded Jeans 

and Squeezed Lemonade to match the colours in the patterned papers 

and stenciled a rainbow effect across the page.

A black gel pen has been used to highlight a few chevrons in three different places.

I have fussy cut a few more chevrons from the Wild Child paper to add on the page.

The chevrons have been given dimension with foam tape 

and placed to highlight the smaller photos.

I've used foam tape under the photos and embellishments to create some layers.

The B&W photos have been matted with Black Cardstock to give them some clear definition.

The quote has been cut from the Bite Size Bite paper,

it's the perfect quote for this page.

The remaining embellishment used to decorate the page 

are from the 6x12 sticker sheet and die cuts pack.

The 2 Crafty Zig Zag Border has been used to frame Mr 14 in the main photo.

The border was given a base coat of gesso, then covered with Sqeezed Lemonade 

and Broken China Distress Oxides, these blended nicely in the middle.

The 2 Crafty title This Boy was kept simple, a coat of gesso

and then covered with a thin coat of charcoal ink.

I hope you have enjoyed the process of the page today.

Have a lovely weekend and please check back on Monday

for Fiona's next project.
