I'm still Me

This is a layout on Ryan's now and then photographs. The baby photograph was taken when he is merely a year old and the other was taken during his fourth birthday.

The inspiration for the layout came to me when I've thought about how much Ryan has grown and he 's such a star in my heart.

I've used the masking, stenciling and doodling techniques throughout the whole layout to create the stars and the frame.

As for the flower, I've individual hand cut the petals out of card stocks and later inked, stamped and doodled on it. I've layered it with another star. To lift the petals, I've used some brads to attached the petals down.

I've used a vellum to create the pocket here and I've created a transparency tag to go with it.

I've also covered the chipboard photo corner and the "ME" chipboard letters with pattern papers and later stenciled some stars on it.
