Sparkle and shine

My first post of 2016, hopefully the first of many! Best wishes to all for 2016.


I am pleased to be posting my first layout of the year to the brand new challenge blog More than words . The members are all experienced and talented scrappers (ps I am not sucking up here)and I wish them well with their new (ad)venture.

 The main challenge for January is "selfie" and "personality". I have yet to master the art of taking selfies but fortunately have a daughter who has it down pat. I think this is a lovely selfie of Ashleigh and decided to make a sparkle  theme and of course as she is crazy over stars I decided to use shine as well ... I do think that her personality sparkles and shines.

I also used the mood board from Berry71bleu which asks you to get your sparkle on .

Both of these challenges have a lot of blue in the inspirational photo and I have tried to incorporate that as well.

  12. It isn't difficult to find a beautiful pic of Ash... but tricky to do it justice in a layout, I think! This really captures her personality. I love the star theme, and all those details. Looking forward to seeing this one and many more when I come and visit... so keep going! xxxx
