HELLO SMILE ~ 2nd REVEAL AT ARTASTIC

Good Afternoon !
The 15th of the month means the 2nd reveal of the DT 's at ARTastic.
This is the inspiration ~ art work by Anna Collins ~ Top Hat tiger
Criteria ~ Black and White plus one other colour

Took me awhile to get my head around this one, because I over think things, but once I actually started my layout came together really quickly (die cuts are a marvelous thing :)

This is what I came up with

Life is Beautiful

I basically used all die cuts . The photo is mounted on a die cut, I have used the Kaiser circle die and used the negatives from it as well . The smile is a negative from the Kaiser smile die ( I don't throw things out ) a little bit of washi and the embellishments are all from a die cut pack from the Reject shop. A little satin seam binding ( one of my favourite things to use ) . The film is a stamp that I stamped on transparency , all done !
The cute little boy is my hubby :)

Thank you for calling by. The DT have all come up with really clever inspiration for you, please pop over to the blog and leave them some love.

Love , Peace and Kindness
