Lucy's Beautiful Colors

This is one of my most favorite photos of Lucy!
It may not show her gorgeous piercing blue eyes,
but the color of her hair, 
in varying brown tones against pure white paws & chest, 
is truly magnificent!

I joined in the
Use or implicate the word "Favorite"
and
Scraplift YOURSELF!!
I was really excited to create a second layout of this photo using a new vision for it today!
The new "reinvented" one is now framed and hanging in my craft area.

The original layout I made 3-1/2 years ago with this photo is titled "Lucy's Many Colors".

Taking inspiration from the original layout, I used white crackle texture paste and a stencil again; metal corner pieces again; a lacy die cut border instead of lace & decorated it with pearls instead of rhinestones; 
flower arrangements again; butterflies again; and title words again. 
Original - created Dec 2016

New - created June 2019

What a gorgeous Prima-Finnabair stencil "Tapestry"!!
Finnabair's white crackle texture paste is my favorite to use.
The silver colored metal filigree corner pieces really frame the whole layout.

I'm so in love with Maja Design's newest Denim & Girls collection!
I've always loved Pink with Navy Blue.
Using the page "Pink Linen" allowed for Lucy's beautiful photo to really pop!
I distressed pieces from the collection to frame Lucy's photo
and layered them; popping up one of the layers with cardboard.

Next came the placement of the beautiful border die that coordinates so well with the stencil. 
Of course, it's cut from the Denim & Girls paper collection.
I decorated it with pale pink adhesive pearls.

Part of the title, the fancy script word "Beautiful" from Want2Scrap is inked 
in Chestnut color to match with Lucy's brown hair. 


Lastly, flower arrangements are created.
Beautiful Wild Orchid Crafts flowers, along with die cut leaves in navy blue, 
adorn each diagonal corner of the photo.

Part of the title is computer printed in navy blue on the same paper as the layout.

Always the very very very last step in my creation process, 
but never the least thought about,
are Reneabouquets stunning butterflies!
My God they are so gorgeous!
The vividness; the sparkle....well words don't do them justice....take an up close look!

What a complete JOY it was to create this layout!
Thank you so very much for visiting and please come again.
Have a great day!
