Hey friends! Happy Independence Day to my fellow American friends! Brianna here today sharing a new layout for Fireworks & Freedom Week. Here's my layout:
To start, I took the 12x12 Borders patterned paper and trimmed down almost all of them. Since I printed my photo a little long and more narrow than I usually do, I wanted to have all of the strips adhered down in a vertical design. I took a piece of plain white cardstock and trimmed 1" inch off of the top and one of the sides. I distressed the edges and then adhered it right in the center of the Dot & Graph paper in McIntosh.
I distressed all of the edges of my strips and adhered them all down towards the left side of the page.
I matted my photo using the Dot & Graph papers in Ice and Blueberry and adhered it right on top of the strips. For my title, I used the America Acrylic Word and put it right on top of my photo. I love how it pops!
For my embellishment clusters, I used the Ciao Chip Chipboard Stickers and both of the Ephemera Icons and Words.
I wanted to add a small subtitle so I created one using the Florence Alphas in Blueberry. I added a large Ephemera piece in the shape of the USA and layered a heart flag right on top of it.
Here's one more shot of this layout to celebrate our Independence! This photo is of my two boys waiting for their Dad to get off of his plane after being away on a 6 month deployment. Elijah was wearing his flight suit of course!
Thank you so much for stopping by today and I hope that I've inspired you in some way! Have a safe and Happy 4th friends!
