Boys day out

After watching a tutorial by Christin Gronnslett I decided to try my hand at layering and although it does not look as pro as hers,  I do think it is a fair start.
The photo is of Dave after a morning ride in the Katberg mountains, which you can see behind him in the photo.

 I used the May 1 Stuck sketch for inspiration and tried to use some of the colours in the photo in my paper layers as well as a "stone" type paper to fit in with the gravel tracks .
I am also entering in the Friday challenge at Frosted Designs which asks for stars and stripes in your entry.
Hope you like it.

    Hi Wendy- I love this layout and the colours used. Such fun elements used. What are the 3D dots? Paint?

    This is such a fabulous photo! The textured, gravely paper on the background is perfect. You did a great job with the layering and I like those cards! ;-)
