Somewhere over the Rainbow - Scrap Around the World Challenge

Hi there!!

I'm just sneaking in with this one, but I just had to join in with this mood board challenge over at Scrap Around the World. Check out the gorgeous mood board created by the very talented Leonie Neal Dawson...

I was totally inspired by all the gorgeous colours of rainbow in this mood board and I remembered that I had a photo of my hubbie and myself on Lindeman Island 5 years ago with a beautiful rainbow in the background. So I knew that this would be the perfect photo for this challenge!!

Here is the layout that I created from this mood board:

I love using lots of bright colours on my layouts, so I had a lot of fun with this one!!

Here are some close-ups to show you some more detail...

I pulled out all of my Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists and Dylusions Spray Inks to create this rainbow effect on the background using a TCW template. I was really happy with the result that I got from using all the different coloured sprays!

I layered a couple of die-cuts and a doily behind my photo on the left hand side. That green doily die-cut is an AC Amy Tangerine one - I love it!

Some more detail of the left hand side of my double layout, including my journalling.

For my title I pulled out all of my lettering, and I chose lots of different colours of the rainbow! Most of the letters are AC Thickers, with the exception of the yellow 'i', which is Bella! I love how the title visually adds to the theme of the 'rainbow' as well.

It was great to create a layout about Andrew & I together, rather than the kids for a change!

Thank you to Scrap Around the World and Leonie for the awesome inspiration!!

Thank you for visiting... I hope you are having a great weekend as we start the count down to Christmas!!!
