I was inspired to dig out my portfolio papers when Mel blogged about getting them in her stocking over at ATDML. It is a beautiful range of papers in blues, yellow and grey and comes with lots of tags and strips that you could use in a project life sort of way. I decided to use them as a banner.
I started the page with some bubble wrap printing (I did want some mist but my white isn't that white so if anyone can recommend a good dense white mist that would be great). I added some string and then layered up my tags on it along with my photo. I cut the this week tab out a little so that it would stand above the photo. Then I started just layering different bits and pieces - a Lily Bee remember this die cut, some MME doily stickers and an OA chipboard button and Crate Paper Farmhouse chipboard number strip. I also added some yellow and green washi tape to the Think Big tag. The title is MME Lush collection and I added some liquid pearl spots around the picture too.
The picture is not the greatest as it is inside, but this is from our trip to Epcot (where we saw Crush the turtle - it was an animation you could interact with in a show...fantastic and very funny if you get a chance to see it). Back to the photo here are the kids in 'Bruce' the shark from Nemo who is trying to become a vegetarians mouth.
Also I have a page over on the Tando blog today if you fancy a look.
