soar

hello!
it's sunday night!
(the worst part of the week...because we all know what tomorrow brings! ha!) 
so i thought, why not lighten the heavy, dark, sad feelings with a fun little layout of my big Mann at the beach?

 i created it for the current Mixed Media Monthly challenge:

birds?! i LOOOOOOVE birds!!! and i certainly love wood veneer birds (you will have no doubt about that, i assure you!)! 
so i knew exactly what i wanted to create:

i love it! i think it turned out lovely! i have been trying to use up things in my stash. and i have about 456008327900 wood veeners, with an estimated 20% of them birds! lol!! i kid...(mostly). so i thought it would add SO MUCH texture and fun to the page if i made them as the background!


 i glued each one down...and i just love how they taper off at the top corner! 
the title, subtitle and parts of the picture cluster were all stitched down. and i even did some stamping!

i actually heat embossed onto the picture itself with the Life is Good stamp set from Lawn Fawn! that was FUN...with a sort of candy coated shell of scary! 

 well that's my layout!
hope this ramble made you laugh a bit! 
enjoy!

    What an amazing layout, Sam!!! The sticking of the birds have to be time-consuming work. :-) Ha, ha, ha, ... Have a perfect day!!! Hugs Jenna
