Amazing Journey using Echo Park Paper First Day of School by Kerryn Fry

Hello everyone!The page I'm sharing with you todayhas been created with the collection,Echo Park Paper First Day of School.
The two photos on this page capture a very special moment of Mr H, showing his very first day of school and his last 'first day' of school, 12 years apart.Where has the time gone?

The base for the page is a clean

12x12 sheet of Bazzill Kraft Cardstock.

The bright primary colours and patterns in this 

collection are layered under the photos and then 

the page is embellished with chipboard and ephemera.

At the top of the photo, I've used

a 2 Crafty Arrow covered with 

Faded Jean Distress Paint

and added a tag with foam tape.

The tag has been outlined with a black gel pen.

The left side of the photo, I have added

2 Crafty Mini Fast Forward Arrows

covered with Chipped Sapphire Distress Paint.

There is a second tag lifted with foam tape

and black alpha stickers from my stash

to create a sub-title along the photo edge.

At the bottom of the page,

the smaller photo has been framed

with the 2 Crafty Polaroid Asst. Frame.

It has been covered with patterned paper

and decorated with the hand cut elements,

apples and school bag from the patterned papers.

The embellishment pieces are

from the Frames & Tags pack.

The Journal spot is a frame piece

from the Frames & Tags pack that 

has been backed with white cardstock.

I've used a black gel pen to create

a border around the cardstock piece

and added another embellishment

with more hand-cut elements.

The dates on both photos have 

been created with black stickers.

The title for the page has been created

with two 2 Crafty chipboard pieces.

Using both 2 Crafty Mini Word Set 1 - Amazing

and 2 Crafty Fine Word Set 3 - Journey

The chipboard has been covered with black ink

and added to the bottom right corner of the page.

I've used a third 2 Crafty Arrow

to highlight the title.
