So using nothing but my Counterfeit Kit Challenge Kit for July "Summer Sky" this is the page I came up with for my brother and his childhood love of Giant Jawbreakers!
Sorry for the fuzzy pictures!! |
The title is a play off of James and the Giant Peach. Those striped Thickers are so large that I decided to use them as a focal point and to ground the layout!
The journaling says " I don't think he ever finished one of those things but man did he love them. Every time we went to the mall it was Giant Jawbreakers and Gummy Sharks"
What I did to create this layout was to lay down my homemade mask and start splattering...I even splattered my entertainment center a bit! When I pulled up the mask I noticed that the rays really didn't stand out like I thought they would so I used some of the embroidery floss that was in my kit to outline every other ray. And then from there it was just a matter of layering it one. I added a bit of the floss curled up and poking out from behind the photo because I thought that I should pull the black lines from the rays to the photo!
Have you guys ever made your own masks? If so, Did it turn out the way you wanted it to?
I can't wait to see what you guys come up with for this challenge. Upload it to the July Mr. Linky here so that I can stop by a take a peek!
Until Next Time "Stay Crafty, My Friends"
