"First Day" layout by Bernii Miller

Heelloooo

Welcome to the weekend!!!

It is Bernii here with you today with a layout share :) 

A love the weekends as it means it is my chance to grab a cuppa and catch up on some crafting.. It also means that I get the chance to "play" and try out some different ideas that have been playing around in my mind..

Like this one..

This is a picture of me way back when on my first day off school.. I was dressed in this sweet traditional Hungarian shirt my mother had for me but I have been waiting to be inspired to create a layout to match.. I then found this free cut file which is based on this exact embroidery pattern on my shirt #winning. 

So I used that as the main focus on the page and and teamed it with the Shimelle Lane - Star Shine collection.. which was perfect for this older photo..

I also used these super cool and retro thickers which are apart of the collection..

And this is the whole layout :) I added in some hand stitching to the flower stems and watercolour in the background .. I also mounted the flowers with some thick foam tape to add some dimension to the layout.. 

I am so happy with how this layout turned out, and I am even happier that I managed to use up this much older photo.. I gave myself a pat on the back for that lol..

Remember if you love this collection as much as me..you can pick up the Star Shine collection HERE. 

Till next time

Much love
