Believe/Possible - Berry Bleu September Challenge

Hi Everyone

Hope you had a super weekend and that Monday has been gentle on your soul! ;-)

I have a page to share with you today for the challenge over at Berry Bleu here.

There is a sketch to inspire you, as well as use mixed media.



So here's my take on it.


I love this photo and I am pleased that I used it for this layout! The photo speaks of a journey and so my theme and journalling is based around this idea of a journey.

My journalling is about Joe's life journey and my wishes for him. "Believe that anything is possible and that anything you set your mind to is achievable! Believe that the world is your oyster and that everyday is special."


I used French Country Collection from Graphic 45. I did some gesso stencilling on the background and then added some copper embossing. The chippie swirls and corners are Enmarc.


Thanks for your visit today.
I am off to the sea-side for a little holiday, so will catch up with again next week Monday.
Have a super week!
