You are my Favorite Memory ~Scraps of Darkness~
I have another layout created with the incredible Scraps of Darkness September Kit The Black Album to share with you today. I made this layout based on the current challenge at Once Upon a . . . Sketch. This photo of my son was taken on a trip to one of his favourite local parks - it is one of those lucky shots you get that turns into a priceless, perfect photo! I actually did some handwritten journalling on this layout (which is very rare for me); the journalling reads, "You are such an amazing, happy little boy and I am so lucky to be your Mom! You are my everything!" Here is my layout and the OUAS sketch that inspired it!
I used the kit's Teresa Collins Memorabilia collection papers and started out by doing some masking with a The Crafter's Workshop (TCW) 12 x 12 Template (Damask) and some homemade black texture paste. I then did some more masking with a 6 x 6 TCW Template (Harlequin) and some Heidi Swapp Color Shine Mist (Tropicana Teal). Then I worked on the layering with the Memorabilia papers, die cuts and border accents, as well as Prima Everyday Vintage Chalkboard Notecards. I used some flowers, a Webster's Pages cameo and the amazing stick-pin included in the Embellishment Add-on to finish off the layout. Here are a couple of close-ups!
