Beach Day

I had a great day crafting today with a friend and managed to get some LOs done.  I did the first page of a series of photos of Ella down at the beach for her first walk on the sand. I did this LO for the August 123 challenge. The criteria was:

WORD: What
COLOUR: Black
TECHNIQUE: Multi-photos
I have used black for a background for my photos and in my journalling.I have done a circle of twine around the Ella to highlight her in the photo. I have seen this somewhere and have been waiting for a suitable photo to do it with. I have also stamped the brown backing with a background grunge stamp from Kaiser craft to add the textured look of sand.

I have added some beach huts which I stamped on chipboard, and have also added some shell stickers, buttons and a pearl.

I have used a canvas tag and a journalling tag from Kaiser craft - Seaside Collection. Love this set.  I have added another homemade crochet flower and used foam letters for my title.

To see the second page to this LO click here. I know a bit back to front but that's how it worked out.
I should be back with another LO tomorrow. See you then.
