For today's inspiration I have chosen to scrap one of the most recent photos I have of my boys together. I have used the Li'l Davis Designs 'Away We Go' travel range of papers and I think they work really well for this layout, even though it's not travel-related.
The heart embellishments along the bottom of the photo were cut from contrasting papers from the 'Away We Go' range, and cut using either the Ultra Shape Express and heart template, or the 'My Funny Valenting' squeeze punch. I've inked the edges and layered the different sized hearts with foam tape.
The faux hinges are simply strips of patterned paper with one end rounded on both corners, inked for definition, and then punched with an eyelet setter/hole punch. I've used epoxy brads from the 'Away We Go' range to tie it all together.
I hope that you are inspired to try using all sorts of different papers for your layouts, and that you are prompted to do a layout of your siblings (or your children.
We'd love to see what you create using the prompts we've given you every day this month, so feel free to send them through to us via the 'contact us' link at the top.
