Never stop Dreaming



Afternoon All

This blog is about a layout for the challenge on the "Off Rails Scrapbooking" blog. It is a Mood board challenge see below for coloursDuring the week i had been putting away some pages in one of my granddaughter album and i found this background paper which she had chalked in blue with a hint of yellow,  (When she was about 10 she loves to muck around with my craft stuff and create the background pages),and  she still does. On this layout  I have used a couple of her backgrounds she has water colour or used mica powders with.I thought the background suited the colours in the mood board. You can be the judge to see if  have it right as i am not a fan of mixed media. I have added a section on how i did the wet media if i had to start from scratch
This is the mood board :
