Special Dad Moment

Hello. I am running late this month with my DT page for ARTastic as I lost my computer for a bit, but, today I'm here with our special challenge for ARTastic. A tribute to the Dads out there, with September holding Father's Day here in Australia, and using this painting as our inspiration;

For my page I chose the colours from the water and boat and couldn't resist using back and white spot paper from the dog.
My background was created my spraying my page with water and then spraying blue ink on top and letting it run dry. After it was dry, I smudged purple water colour paint before using background stamps to finish off my page. With a busy background, I kept my papers and embellishments to a minimum.

Wishing everyone another month of fun scrapbooking and please feel free to join in the ARTastic challenge this month.

It's a gorgeous page, Elaine - such a lovely photo to scrap, too. I really like that spotted paper & the bg with the 'watery' effect is fabulous:):)

Lovely interpretation of the challenge as it has a real 'water " feel to it.
