Relax - Papermaze August Kit

My second layout using the kit from Papermaze for the month of August is called 'Relax'. I selected the blues and greens from the bright, summery colours of this kit for this layout.  The layout features two photographs of my son, some years ago enjoying the hammock we set up in the garden between the trees.





The August Kit
... And here is the Pagemap sketch I chose to work from.



I chose waterfall Bazzill as the base for this layout. I cut a strip of Tidepool which I then cut in half diagonally. These pieces were randomly stamped with the Woodware circle stamps and placed either side of the layout and trimmed with pale blue ric-rac from my stash. 

Using the Tidepool paper again, but with the wording side uppermost, I cut a pieceto place placed in the centre of the page. Then I trimmed a piece from the stripe side of Life is Good paper, selecting the blue and green area, I shaped this into a banner at the bottom. 

With one of the Amy Tangerine Resist Watercolour Tags supplied, I created an ombre effect by blending several shades of distress ink across the length of the tag. Then I tied a scrap of jute twine to the tag.

Finally I used two leaf dies from a Sizzix Thinlits set called Intricate Native Florals and with some white scrap card I made three clusters of three leaves.

Back with more early next month. with two more layouts from this kit.
Thanks for looking
