The Three Amigos challenge was to create a project using at least one die cut, which also happened to be an option for the Double Trouble challenge, as well as not using patterned paper and linking back to the Three Amigos hop. I also was inspired this week by the Just Add Ink challenge of splatters and spots.
There is a nearby cafe in our area selling Freak Shakes, which are epic milkshakes loaded with lollies, colours and ice-cream. Naturally, my eight year old chose this as his school holiday reward during our mother son date, and I had to create a layout to showcase the epic treat.
I used a sunburst layout and cut it using my Cricut machine, and then layered different coloured cardstock underneath each negative piece.
I added a little bit of extra interest with some ink splatters, gold glitter spots and star stickers, and I also kept the journal space relatively simple as I wanted the starburst and the photos to be the main focus of my layout.
Stay tuned for more rainbow themed projects this month- I have so many to share with you!
Wow, what a fantastic rainbow background and also the rainbow colors in the photo of your son's excitement of that yummy looking Freak Shake...it's so fitting in your layout, love it all. And that dish freaks me out and I want one. Thank you so much for sharing this with us at DOUBLE TROUBLE and anxious to other rainbow creations.
