Serenity **TCR/Dusty Attic/Scrap That!**

Happy Sunday everyone! This is a wonderful day full of miracles here in BC Canada. My son lives in a small town in BC and on Wednesday this week a child was abducted while he was sleeping. My son’s family helped out with feeding the search crews. The man that abducted him brought him home this morning and he is safe with his family again….a true miracle!!! The child is the same age as my grand daughter in this layout. So happy he is safe now. For this layout I used the sketch from Dusty Attic, this weeks palette at The Color Room and papers from my Scrap That! stash. This is the first hybrid layout I have ever done and I made all the flowers myself.



The title piece is from a digital kit as well as a few other pieces that I cut out and used on this layout. The DA under the title is a border that I used Gabrielle’s tutorial to alter the piece. I made all of the flowers to match this weeks palette. The lacing is done with twine.


The DA piece in the photo corner is cut up to make it the shape I needed it.

A close up of all the layers.

Ok well that is it for today. Thanks again for stopping by and I hope that you have a fantastic week.  Feel free to leave me some scrappy love comments, I love reading them ...take care and happy scrapping J
