YOU MAKE ME HAPPY ... by Stéphanie Papin

 
 Hello eveyone,  Stéphanie back with you today, and as always  I am so  happy  to  share
   my new layout made with some of the new chippies !
 
Today I  have changed up my style a little with this layout. I  had this beautiful photo  
of my  daughter and I  made some changes to the colors with a photo editor.  I 've given it
  a vintage appearance.  So from these colors of the photo and from my normal style,
 I worked  with vintage colors. 

I  must confess, before starting to work on a layout,  I must be inspired by  my  photo,
 if not, I can' t work! It is essential for meWhen I have a picture that I like, I look at all angles 
 and after a while, I discover details that help me to build my layout.
 
Here for example, my daughter twirls  her hair in her hand,  as if to make loops. I see an idea 
of movement. I was attracted by this Jeremy's vine chipboard. I used this chipboard 
as a central element of my page.

 Then I looked for other elements. These Bubble Clumps chipboard also remind me of movement: Small circles remind me of a movement that turns; so I added this chipboard over the previous one.

 
  Next I worked on the left side as well. I wanted  to place something here that reminded  me of  a brick wall.  (the wall  that I see behind my  daughter). I just wanted to add something that
  reminds me of a texture.
 
 
  Next up I have chosen  a title that suited.
 
 
 There is an amazing choice on the 2Crafty website. This one is very interesting
It's  long and with a very nice fontI chose to cut into it in two &  place it on top, and bottom. 
I think it looks  harmonious done this way.
 

 My chipboards here are all covered with gesso and once dry, I applied some liquid ink.
  This is just sooo easy to do.

 

I hope you enjoy this new layout!
