Make a splash

Happy Friday! I am very excited because today I am on the Imaginisce blog sharing my very first project as a  Design Team member! I have been playing with the brand new "Par-r-rty Me Hearty" collection and it inspired me to create a (rare) double pager!

We have been going to Legoland California for years and the pirate theme of the collection was perfect for one of the rides called Splash Battle:

This is not the first time that I combine a regular layout with a "faux" pocket page and I just love this combination! The left side is a classic design created on patterned paper and the right side is designed like a pocket page but without the special page protector. I simply adhere my photos and homemade cards on a 12x12 cardstock.

I had a lot of fun with the die-cuts and the cut-ups from the "Par-r-rty" sheet of paper and since the ride is called Splash Battle I used one of the paper strips from the bottom of a patterned paper as my title.

I also added paint splashes in several areas and as I always enjoy adding a bit of sewing on my pages, I sewed the pennants (also from the "Par-r-rty" paper).

For the right side of my double pager, I created three 3x4 cards where I layered different embellishments with adhesive foam.

I love this combination because it allows me to use many photos (I have 8 here including five 4x6!) without it looking  overcrowded.
Thank you for stopping by!
