100% Boy using My Minds Eye Happy Days by Kerryn Fry

Hi everyone! A new collection for me this week. Today I'm sharing my first layout created with  My Minds Eye Happy Days. It has gorgeous bright colours and I love the touch of pink. The photo is another one from the archives, Harrison age 5, riding his bike with rollerblades on. What can I say!

A simple design this week.

The page was started with my usual favourite, Kraft cardstock.

Using Broken China Distress Oxide and a 6x6 Crafters Workshop template,

I've added some interest to the background.

The 2 Crafty Zig Zag border is actually the centre piece.

This piece has become my sun,

I've painted it with Mustard Seed Distress Paint 

and then swiped with gold metallic ink.

Once dry, I've applied a thick coat of Dimensional Magic

The house  and clouds have been hand cut from Ice Cream Dreams paper

and the cactus cut from Cheery Disposition.

I have added a faux stitched border to the clouds with a black pen

and all of the elements have been mounted on foam tape.

For something a little different, I have journalled around the pattern papers.

The 2 Crafty title 100% Boy has been given the same effect as the sun.

Painted with Distress Paint and then swiped with gold ink,

finishing with a thick coat of Dimensional Magic.

I love the sparkle of the gold ink in the light

and how the gold highlights the yellow on the bike.

That's all for this week. Thanks for dropping by today. and I hope you have a great weekend. Please join us again on Monday for Fiona's next page.
