About the Author

Back again with the fourth of my layouts from the July Papermaze Kit. Again I have used the using the exclusive stencil included in the kit. The other pages I created with this kit can be found here.


This layout was created with a photo of my brother with the football books he has written and had published. The photo was taken in preparation for the next publication 'Irrational Hatred of Everything' which will be published later this year. The photo is for the 'About the Author' page. 

I trimmed the Rain cardstock down to 11.5" x 11.5" then with Stormy Sky Distress Ink and the stencil I worked my way round the edges of the cardstock, varying the depth of the image as I went.

This was then mounted onto a gutted sheet of Typhoon*cardstock. From the leftover patterned papers I cut lots of strips about 1.5cm x 13.5 cm, some of these were cut in to arrows, all were inked with the Stormy Sky ink. I then die cut additional arrows with the Little B arrow die set. Together with two strips of Washi Tape from the kit I arranged these down the centre of the page. 

The photo was mounted onto a scrap of Boogieboard cardstock and placed it near the top left of the layout. My title was created with some letter stickers from my stash. 

Finally I used the Pretty Little Studio leaf die-cuts to create clusters in tow corners.

I will be back later in the month with some ideas for the August kit.
Thanks for looking.
