I wanted to make a companion page for the "Faithful" one for my hubbie, talking more about the things that I went through. And for me, the biggest thing as I reflect on the time of unemployment for our family is thankfulness.
So I scrapbooked some of the things that happened during that period in the circles surrounding my picture.
As for the challenge itself, it asked to do the following:
“L” is for Layers. Lots and lots of layers. In my case, at the deepest level, there are 7 layers of paper, but over the entire page, there are 10 layers: base, 2 vertical borders, background of journaling, journaling, 2 photo mats, picture, horizontal border, title.
“E” is for Embossing. I dry embossed the layer under the journaling.
“A” is for Altered Use. I'm not sure that I really "altered" anything beyond its intended use, but I did take 2 pieces of scrapbooking paper and use it only for the circles...for me, that's altered!
“P” is for a Plethora of Pretties! I used lots of shimmer paint around the picture. It's hard to see in the photo, but it is there, linking the picture with the journaling.
