Scrappers it is time to show another great project for Time will Tell, this month's challenge. Here are the details, we want to see what you have time for ;)
Now on to our designer Elizabeth and what she wants us to know about her layout:
Hello Everyone,
When I was considering what to do for the August Challenge, Time Will Tell, I kept coming back to this lovely photo taken of my granddaughter, Shari-Ann, sitting on her granddad's knee, listening intently as he was telling her a story - she absolutely loved story time with granddad and adored hearing his rather tall tales :)
I chose a Daisy Bucket Designs background paper, Under the Boardwalk, because it is fairly neutral, and the other elements feature colours from the bird border - from Cosmo Cricket's Nutmeg Elements. Most of the papers used are from the snippet pile and unfortunately I no longer remember all the makers or even the what they were called. However, I do know that the borders along with the bird border, the Simple Pleasures sentiment and the Remember When journaling spot are from Cosmo Cricket's Nutmeg Elements. I fussy cut the clocks from the fabulous World Map sheet(Clocks are on reverse)from Kaisercraft Timeless Collection.
I've used Kiwi Lane Designs templates a lot on this layout - the curvy borders are from the Abbie Road set, the bracket shape on the left of the photo is Bracket 1 and the arrow head is from the Tiny Nature set.
The dotty photo matting was trimmed with a pair of scalloped edge scissors - these came free with a craft magazine some time ago. At the time I put them away thinking I'd never use them, and might even pass them on to Shari-Ann for her to play with, but I've now used them twice in as many days so I'll be keeping them after all :)
The embellishments - the die-cut butterflies, a gift from a friend, Tim Holtz Adage Tickets, and adhesive-backed gems were all from my hoard of stash.
I have still to add the journaling, will do that later when I've thought out what to write.
Elizabeth
