So Happy Layout (8th Birthday)

I created this layout for a display for an Open House I am doing at a customer's house this weekend. I wanted to showcase the Spring papers featured in our Spring 2009 Idea Book along with some fun accessories and a few techniques.

For the techniques I used the Cocoa stamp pad and sponge for distressing all the edges of the papers to create a soft look. I also used the Create-a-Shade paint on the large white flower to make to give it a pearly look. It if very difficult to photograph that, but trust me it looks great! To add dimension I popped up the three 4 x 6 photos. Again that does not show well in the photograph.
