You Anchor Me

This week on the Glitz Designs blog we were challenged to incorporate some chalkboard elements into our layouts. This was a fun challenge!

I love the bright and cheerful colors in the Glitz Color Me Happy line, but sadly I have used up every last sheet of my 12 X 12 paper from this line. No problem though, because here I just pieced together what paper I had left along with some of the 8 X 8 paper for the background. 

At first the background seemed a bit too busy, but after I layered it with neutral black and white chalkboard elements plus a B & W photo, it seemed to come together. 

One of my favorite things to do on chalkboard elements is white with my white sharpie pen. Here I just did a little writing at the top of the page. 

I'm loving this photo of my husband and me that I took earlier this month. We need to take more photos together. I just can't wait until me braces come off! Then I'm sure I'll be more excited for up close photos.
