When I saw NBK Designs Beyond the Sea Collection, I knew I wanted to scrap some of my beach/wildlife pictures. But I knew I didnt want to do a traditional looking page. I started looking through my photos and when I saw all the sandpipers on the beach, I knew I wanted to make them my focus. Using the art frames, allowed me to make a more artsy page while still focusing on the sandpipers. I combined papers, painty pieces from the the artsy bits, the impasto styles and the magic lights using various blending modes to create the more artsy look.
