I love these family photos that were taken this spring with my parents and sister. This page is a little tribute to how much their support has meant to me throughout my life. I took Lela's Mini VSBN challenge to use 4 items from her list plus 1 technique and incorporate them into my layout. The items I chose were: felt, ribbon, a swirl, 4+ patterned papers, and metal embellishments (that's 5, but hopefully it's okay). My technique was distressing. I also used the contrasting colors of blue and yellow in my layout, so it qualifies for the Inspiration Challenge to use contrasts.

What a wonderful page. Love your color choices, the stars, the title work and the family photos (the rounded corners add a nice touch!) Your journaling is beautiful. I always admire your pages, Cheryl.

Gorgeous! i really like how the curve in the title overlaps a photo, and the distressed matting on the same photo. Also i am one of those scrappers that likes to place at least one photo "askew"!
