happiness

 Hello - just sharing a page that I created over the weekend at the Scrap Camp - it's a 'just because' page and it was great to create with 'no rules' attached.   I love how it's turned out.  And for a change ...... I've not gone with my usual banner style ☺

My youngest always gives me the brightest of smiles and they make the best photo's - I just love his face looking up at me here ☺
With the white background and subtle colours in the papers, the photo really pops off the page.  Once again, I've used chevrons - I love them!!!!
Here are some close-up's:

 I've applied texture paste to the background with a chevron mask.  The chevron shapes are created using a photo corner punch.  I've then stitched some buttons to add some interest.
 Some more chevrons and a chipboard word ' love' .
The papers are all assorted collections from my stash.  I've tied some twine around the photo and clustered a button and flowers.

Thanks for coming by to visit ☺
