It's always fun to make a page with something new or inspiring in mind. This page, Harvest Time, was begun with just that: a little inspiration (and the desire to play with digital product to get something new).
Harvest Time | Digital Page
I looked through the November issue of Creating Keepsakes while waiting for my husband at an appointment. This page, "Shoes" by Amy Peterman, caught my eye -- first because of the awesome title--but, then, it was that mat with pinking on 3 sides and a torn notebook edge on one side that I kept looking at. I like to do a lot of layering and I'm always looking for good mats or foundations -- this would definitely add interest to a page.
And -- it provided a way to play with my digital product stash. I remembered Katie Pertiet had some torn notebook edge masks (they were one of my early digital purchases!) and I knew there were lots of border templates in the Designer Digitals store, too.
I layered and sized the edge and border masks until I had a good fit. I merged the two layers and then clipped this patterned paper from Lynn Grieveson's Fall Festival Kit. I had a great new piece to layer into a page--and I'm keeping that new merged mask handy.
Gorgeous page Debbie! I love the layers and the scalloped/torn paper. So amazing what your hands create with the computer! Beautiful! Glad you had at least a few moments to PLAY!
