Beach Waves Layout

Hello friends! Happy Saturday!  Today I was creating in my studio and I had some fun making a layout with some paint dabbers and hand stitching.  My son was only eight years old when I took this photo of him running into the lake on a hot summer day.


I painted a "frame" around the photo with four colors and then added some hand stitching in four similar colors of DMC embroidery floss.


There are also some flair buttons from A Flair For Buttons.


I fussy cut some circles from Echo Park's Summer Bliss Collection and embellished the circles with some sequins.  


The title "Beach Waves" is from Just Nick Digital Cut Files.  I die cut the title with my Silhouette Cameo on white card stock and used paint dabbers to color the die cuts instead of looking for some colored card stock.  I think they turned out very well and they coordinate nicely with the colors of the layout.






I played along with Sketch #107 over at My Scraps And More.



I hope you are inspired to create a layout with some hand stitching and some paint dabbers.  Have a great day!
