This week at SweetSassyDiva, we are celebrating What A Year! Today I have a layout celebrating the year 2011. I found inspiration from this sketch from Frosted Designs.
We had our family photos taken for the first time in 4 years. I loved how they turned out! I chose the colors of papers to match our shirts.
I used silver cardstock to mat my photos.
I used my Gypsy to size the numbers from Opposites Attract to 1.76 inches. I grabbed Family from Home Accents at 1.71 inches and this border from Paper Trimmings at .90 inches (which made it 10 inches wide to fit my purple 10x10 paper). I see a lot of future projects with Paper Trimmings!!!!
I added some crinkle ribbon and flowers. I lost the dot to the "i" (as usual) and used a blue crystal instead.
I hand wrote highlights from 2011 around the edge of the background paper for each of us in the family as well as our vacations.
I hope your 2011 was a great year! Best wishes in 2012!!
