Living an Inspired Life: DOWN BY THE SEASHORE

Summer is coming to an end, but that doesn't mean we can continue reliving its stories. What better way to document those glorious days than with a bit of Doodlebug's Seaside Summer collection. I just love the colors and designs! It is perfect for my family beach vacation photos. Let me show you...

I started with a bit of mixed media on the background -the blue color just reminds me of the sea!-. While the paint dried, I worked on creating the page's layers.

I ripped a few strips of paper, and curled the ripped edge to remind me of waves. I set these along the top edge of my page.

I am using a mix of embellishments to create clusters around the bottom edge of the photo. I love the tropical feel of the Bits & Pieces pack, the colors just matched those of the photo perfectly.

I used the leftover pieces of the ripped papers to create a similar layered look at the bottom of the page. It just created an opportunity to create the title of my page, and complete the beach scene.
