This is a scrapbook page I started a few days ago. I incorporated several challenges from myspace groups and scrapbook.com. When I first 'finished' it, it did not feel finished. But I did not know what to add. Then one of the DT members of one of the myspace groups posted a tutorial for dry embossing and issued a challenge to do some dry embossing on a layout. It took me a couple days to snap to it -- but eventually I realized that is what the layout needed -- a dry embossed border! LOL
I did all the dry embossing last night and took this picture this morning.
I used a stencil to make the stars in the corners and free hand doodled the confetti border. Then I sanded the raised areas and colored them with some light orange chalk. I had a blast doing this technique and in spite of all that orange, I am pleased with the way this layout turned out.

I am in that certain myspace group and your finished page looks amazing! It really does add that certain little punch without taking away from the page!! Great job!
ReplyDeleteI am doing the 365 on my main blog (not the scrappy one), but only posting a week at a time. :)
That border came out great. It definatly finishes the page.
