I made a few special projects for Earth day. I feel that with all the changes that the Earth has been going through with global warming, the earth quake's, volcano's exploding and everything else that is really causing the Earth to be imbalanced, that it's really important that everyone concentrate on doing something good for the Earth. Gavin was born on Earth day - six years ago today, and for that reason, I want to see him enjoy Earth and all of it's natural beauty as much as I and past generations have been able to. To honor Earth day, I made this beautiful layout, using a recycled cardboard for my background and then by using up some of my scraps of pattern paper. The theme today is Earth, and this layout "Save the Earth" talks about what I pray for when it comes to making the Earth a little better for my son and for future generations.
I added some of my Shimmerz paint in Blueberry Cobbler to the upper corner that is torn on the cardboard...look at how beautifully it shines!
I also sprayed the edges with my Shimmerz Spritz in Truffle to give this layout a little extra sheen. Again, just look at how beautifully the colors shine and how subtle this color is with the cardboard.
I really love how the cluster of flowers an also the title turned out, this layout was just too fun to make!
Such a fun layout and while promoting Mother Earth and her importance!
In this next layout, I created this one for the Pebble's blog. I love how once again, this turned out to be a fun and not "drab" layout. I think of course I may be a little biased due to the subject matter, but what can I say? This is such a cute kid, wouldn't you agree??
Here are some close ups of the layout for you to enjoy. The titl4e was created by using a die cut sticker from the So Tweet line and also using Pebbles Chips and American Crafts thickers alphabet stickers.
The bottom part of this layout was created to give an effect of hills and trees and then just some free flowing flowers. All of these colors work so well together, don't you just love it?
For more great Earth day projects, please stop by the Pebble's blog and see what other design team members came up with this week...you'll love what they created!
Thanks for stopping by! Happy creating!
