For the 11 Birthday Slow Scrap Challenge

I used Blue Flower Arts Art Therapy - Dotty 2 template as my base. I hope thats OK. http://www.oscraps.com/shop/Art-Therapy-Dotty2.html



Add one piece of paper to act as your background and then place one photo on the left side of the page

2. Choose either a frame, a mask or both to use with your photo. Now clip or frame the photo as desired.

3. Now layer three paint pieces, three paper pieces or a combination of the two under your photo.

4. Lets get a little more layering under that photo. Now I want you to add at least two more items under that photo. I want to see either gesso, ephemera or paint (if you used paint in the previous step, you can use paint here but only if you also use gesso or ephemera).

5. Now add at least five additional elements to your page. The elements you choose are up to you.

6. Its time to put a title on the page.

7. To wrap things up, lets add a date, drop shadows and journaling if desired and then upload to the Special O-vents gallery and post the finished layout in this thread.

Journaling reads:
When you feel pretty, you take a picture I HAD to dress up for something this day, but, quite frankly, this is the first time since the first of the year that I even felt well enough to dress up. No one else was home, so I had to use my selfie stick, but I got a photo of me in a dress, but more importantly, I got a picture of me feeling good again.
