Adventure Layout

I wanted to capture the adventurous spirit of my nephew and I loved the photos of him contemplating how to proceed climbing this tree.  He was so proud of himself and this was the highlight of my visit.  The intertwined and entangled branches appeared more dramatic when I changed the photo to black & white. 

I added numerous stamped images onto the purple background paper to add interest such as hand-prints, sun rays, and sayings.  Dragonflies were added to bring in subtle "pops" of sunset colors.   Finally, the title was made with denim letters which suited a little boy layout and added great texture.

A random scattering of confetti like Dew Drops were just what the layout needed. Dew Drops are the perfect finishing touch for ANY layout.  Yes, really ANY layout! So even more masculine projects can be embellished with Dew Drops, they are not just for girly girl pages.  To learn how I incorporated rubber stamping into the layout, please visit The Robin's Nest Blog, HERE for the complete tutorial.
