Snowglobe

Documenting a sleepover with my son and granddaughter--she had made me a snowglobe drawing, and as luck would have it, it matched almost identically the snowglobe I had left out on the dining room table. We had fun comparing, and also examining my collection of vintage glass Christmas ornaments. It was a calculated risk letting a 2-year old handle those ornaments, but there was much to be gained in going with it and I'm happy to report every single one survived...and I think the lesson about "trust" sunk in.

This was a strange layout for me in that the template I'd chosen came with a cool wood frame built into the photo mask, and right up until the end I was working two versions of this layout—one with the wood frame, one without. In the end (and I surprised myself here) the more stripped down version (the one without the frame) won out. What turned the tide was me loving the Artsy Paper augmented by an Artsy Transfer so much that I couldn't bear to cover it up.

A layout hot off the press! You created a great background, also a great extraction, beautiful photos, there is perspective by the very sweet photo in the front, the colors are very beautiful, super!
 
I enjoyed the pictures and your story of this special visit. Love the 'trust' you mention!
 
The extracted photo really catches my eye and draws me into the rest of the layout. Great work!
 
a chef d'oeuvre! gorgeous ! perfect match of the background and colors of the photos; beautiful extraction, its position gives depth to the page! adorable girl!

Great extraction front and center, very eye-catching. Love the perfectly matching background.
 
Oh, this is so gorgeous!!!~ You are so talented at the extractions and blending!
Oh how I struggle with extractions! I do them the old-school way, with blending brushes and layer masks, because it's the only way that I can get something that is at least decent. It makes me feel great that you think this one looks good!
