Sisterly Love

Another layout that I was trying something new. The background paper is kind of boring, so I used acryllic paint, and diluted it. I used it to color in the yellow rose and leaf. On the left side, you can see where I tried it with pink and it didn't turn out so well. The red rose is a die cut.l
I think this is a cute picture. After I started the layout I realized that the two of us (I'm on the left, my younger sis on the right) look a bit like two children approaching a gingerbread house... LOL.
Also, this layout was put in next to another layout that also had the title of Sister. So I added an -ly love to the title.

Twins?

No, Cousins. A pic of myself and my cousin L when we were about 2 maybe? We have matching dresses. She was born about 2 months after I was born.
This is another layout where I tried something and wasn't thrilled with the result. I put on the pink paper lines where there had been lines in the background paper. It doesn't look as good as I thought it would. Hey, at least I try new stuff.
Also has a slide mount which was a challenge on one of the groups I'm on. I keep joining more, and they get harder and harder to keep track of which is which.
