Manta Rays

Hiya Everyone!
Last night i decided to make another layout for fun but this time in a row of embellishment. I have never done a layout with so much blank space but i want to build up my portfolio with nice layouts + textures and such! This photo was taken in mexico and during the layout process i kept getting it all inky :( O WELL! I love the rich colors against the brighter background. Let me know what you think in the comments below and be honest!


Some close ups!



This layout was so fun and quite quick actually! Only about 45 minutes! I love the stitching also! 
Thanks so much for looking and follow my blog to the right!

  2. I love it. I don't like dishonesty when it comes to my work. I feel that I can not progress if I am not hearing the truth. I don't want someone being mean though.

  6. This is some beautiful work. having sadi that, it's really REALLY frustrating to see you updating this almost daily and the people in your Kit club are STILL waiting on instructions for your december Kit and you seem to be ignoring us. It's fine if you cancelled it but you SAID you wouold give us istructions and you haven't yet, it's almost Feb! You need to do what you told us all you were going to do, it's bad business to just leave us hanging the way you have.

  9. Drew, the colors are brilliant! I love how the blue-green bring out the colors of the photo. I never thought about placing a photo on top of embellishments. I will have to try it. Keep up the great work!

  15. I love it. I've watched a couple of your from start to finish LO videos, you make the scrapbooking process look so easy. I struggle with inspiration on my own. I'm a great scraplifter. LOL. Thanks for sharing. I enjoy your videos.
