The Most Beautiful @ STAMPlorations

{My DT work for STAMPlorations}

Hi everyone! Happy Sunday and wish you all good health and prosperity. I'm fine and just a little bit tired from clearing the kitchen as we are in the middle of installing cabinet and this may take a week or so to get done by the professional team.

Sharing my make this time is a layout of my eldest daughter. We did a photo shoot on the last day of school break while visiting my in-laws two weeks ago. It's been a while I make her layouts and thought some new photos would be ideal for her scrapbook album. I went inside to keep my camera but she stayed outside playing with my phone and selfie-d herself...teenager...lol!  She excitedly showed me some selfie photos and I just love this one the best with the sun shined from behind creating semi circle sun ray. 

I decided to change into black and white for this project. Perhaps next one will be similar photo but let it be a color one.

So there, finally a layout of her she's been waiting for.

'Alyaa lives at boarding school will be home on April 28. Well I am eager to see her reaction when she sees this. 

I hope she likes it and feel satisfied. Well what do you think?  

Some up-close photos:

 I die cut paper to make some blooms and leaves.

The butterflies are stamped and fussy cut. I used watercolor pencils to give them some brightness.

My layout used this fabulous sketch from Bumaga-Maraka challenge: 

The colors from Mixed Media Warriors pallet caught my eyes. I chose green moss, brown and yellow to go along with black.

And trying my luck at Free-Works Blueberry-Nights challenge:

Meanwhile, the monthly challenge at STAMPlorations March Mixed Media challenge is still running until end of this month. You can create to your heart content but no cards please. See you there.

Have a great week ahead and wishing you the best in life and undertakings.

Hugs and smiles,
