{Beach day...}

Hello, 49 and Market fans!

Welcome to the blog today.

This is my first layout using the Vintage Artistry Sunburst collection. This collection is perfect for documenting summer memories at the pool or on the beach.

The cute and cheerful boy is my little grandson, James. I took these photos of him on the beach during our December holiday in Australia.

For this layout, I used the bright and bold Ray of Sunshine paper. He is such a ray of sunshine this little guy.

Here is my layout.

I matted the layered photos on several ephemera pieces and General Laser-cut elements as well as lace and a photo wrap from the Color Swatch Ocean Laser Cut elements, a frame from the Color Swatch Ocean Frame Set, and a Curators Essential Key Lined chipboard frame. I also used a cardstock die-cut piece from the Spectrum Sherbet Remnants that are perfect for layering. For the title of my page, I used the cute Beach Day banner included in the General Laser Cut set.

To create the three clusters, I used elements from the General Laser set, Tropical Foliage Laser Cuts, and Ephemera Bits.

I took the fish net and cut it in half to use under the layers. I glued word strips, chipboard elements, and chipboard words to my layout.

The Sunburst collection has stunning rub-on transfer sets. Here you can see I used sentiments from the 12x12 transfer sheet and from the 6x8 transfer set.
