Five more

 Being out of work for the summer has made me pretty bored. I'm still going at it although I've slowed down a bit. 

I find it difficult to scrap pictures when I don't have a date of the photo or if they're not good pics or if I feel like I'm just repeating myself.


For this page, I didn't edit the photo. I guess I forgot so you get to see the mess that lives behind me. 

I wanted to get messy and so I used modeling paste and a stencil for the background. I didn't want to add too much more (paper wise) so I just used some circle paper and something neutral for the photo to live on. I still don't know if I like it or not.


These are my grandchildren. I took the photos back in February but just now edited them. Paper is mostly Fancy Pants with a little BasicGrey scrap that I found.

This is Blake as a baby. In the picture above, he's the kid on the left (now 11 years old). I don't really like pre-made titles but I painted myself into a corner with this one so I just left it. Same paper line as above. And I got to use some yellow mist which is fun. 


I followed the design of one of my older pages for this one. I really loved (and still do) Lilly Bee so that's where the flags and polka dot comes from. 


This is one I'm just not happy with at all but I've accepted the fact that it just needed to be done. Look how cute he is next to his giant science project display. I felt there wasn't much I could do with this because the photo itself sucked (color, exposure, etc) so I got out the trusty BasicGrey and tried to highlight him as best I could instead of the GIANT WHITE BOARD that holds the spotlight. I also tore a page out of a chemistry book I use for occasions such as this and then distressed it by using some walnut dye ink.

Trent is kind of lost in the darkness. Crappy pic.

I just recently added the stamps when I remembered I had some Tim Holtz stamps that were science related. 


 

I don't have a date for this picture so it will sit in the pile of other pages I have with no dates. Too many to count.
