Making a scene

Hi! I hope you had a wonderful 4th of July, especially if you live in the US. I love the time spent with family and friends, so it's something I look forward to.

My layout today was years in the making! I was trying to solve the problem of a page that I had no pictures for and then the inspiration hit that I could follow the lead of my fellow DT members and create a scene to share some of the sights I didn't capture with my camera!

I used:

Snowy Scene Cutting Files

to create rolling foothills

College Road Trip Cutting Files

to recreate the road we were driving on

Oh, Snap! Title Cutting Files

This was the perfect title and a great spark of inspiration for my page

Farm Critters Cutting Files

I used the chicken and the horse - I just liked how they worked with my page.

Fall Festival Cutting Files

for the bit of fence I used

Flower Assortment Cutting Files

for the bits of grass here and there.

And here's how it all came together:

I love how the chicken came out. I looked for chickens that were colorful on Google and used colors from other parts of this album.

This horse is adorable and so much fun to pop the different parts up with foam adhesive to add some dimension!

I'm so happy to now have a final page for this album!
So, if you ever need to fill in where you don't have a picture - just keep the Pretty Papers, Pretty Ribbons shop in mind! The possibilities are endless!

Happy crafting!
