Our Family

I want to share with you a layout I made using the Authentique Loyal Line. It seemed fitting that I should choose this Loyal line to document a photo of my family taken by the comparable Angela Smith of Waterloo. I is a favourite of mine and in fact hangs in 18x24 glory on the wall of my kitchen.

I was inspired to use the sketch posted at Authentique as well. Their sketches give a great starting place that really gets my creativity flowing. Altogether, I felt I had a creative place to start!

I fussy cut the large flower out of patterned paper and then two more smaller ones and layered them for depth. The flourish is from a Tim Holtz die. I felt, that like our family the design should have lots of textures; feeling to the eye. I added the corrugated letters from Pebbles and the stitching for two extra textures. I also used the tiny navy words. Can I tell you that I love these words? I look for any opportunity to use them!

I hope you are inspired by this design and I encourage you to head over to Authentique for more inspiring designs, sketches and even a few laughs. The Loyal line is Authentique's usual high quality and great design! Drop me a line and let me see what you've made with Loyal.
Until next time, keep doing what you love to do!
