Boys






What a fun twist I created with this layout.  These pictures are of my mothers family before she was born. (yes she had 4 brothers!) 

Background paper has a fun orange red hue from S.E. I matpad.  I took the Jenni Bowlin black and beige paper and cut out a major section from the patter probably around 4 inches. I then sprayed a few spritzes of ink (the ones from mikes)  and I love the effect of the spray look!  I took a swirl stamp that I have repeated a few times around the copper tim holtz token, and then gold embossed (my fave!)  I layer the dot paper from the cosmo cricket wanted collection that played up the background color.  Cosmo cricket chip letters in a plaid spell out the word BOY for the title.

I love the unexpected color combination and vintage fun look given.
