First project of 2021-layout for Creative Artiste

 Hello friends and Happy New Year! We took the month of January off at Creative Artiste Mixed Media Challenge Blog and I'm happy to be back with you, sharing my first layout of the year featuring a photo of my late father taken by his best friend a few years before Dad passed.




I had been in a bit of a creative slump before starting this so opted to keep it simple, using coordinating papers from Heartfelt Creations and painting my Gypsy Soul Laser Cuts chipboard frame with metallic silver, then cutting it in half to partially frame the photo.
   




It felt good to create a layout again after a dry spell-sometimes finishing a simple project is what's needed to get those creative juices flowing again rather than tackling something that could overwhelm you. I hope you enjoyed seeing my page and I wish you a wonderfully creative 2021!

    totally AWESOME work Lynne!! This profile of your father caught my eyes because it reminds me a lot of Sean Connery. Very handsome father.
