It's the Little Things

Week 15, It's the Little Things, Life Book
This one was difficult for me. I kept "messing up" which means more layers. That's not always bad.
I used some Neocolors around her face and thought it was just too much.
So I grabbed some gesso and some pattern paper leftovers and covered it up, for the most part.
I did some background word stamping, added some gelli prints done with the new round one, to which I wrote "the little things" that make things special. I also stapled on part of a tag where I put the theme. I had some fun with my new Rebekah Meier stencil and Abandoned Coral Distress Inks.

Thanks for stopping by. I love reading your comments!

  1. Great piece of work! I love the way the extra layers have turned out. I think that the Life Book themes are often challenging but that is why they're so beneficial too - well done for persevering - I think it's turned out brilliantly. Thanks for sharing with us at Rhedds Creative Spirit - Steffi :o) xx

    1. Thanks, Steffi. I often hit a spot when I am convinced that I have ruined a piece only to find myself pushed into new discoveries!
