Today it is my turn to share a yellow creation with you for the Creative Craft World Birthday Blog Hop.
As soon as I knew I had the colour Yellow the song "You are my Sunshine" jumped into my head, I remember my mum singing it to me and my brother and I always sang it to my monkeys it is a family tradition which I hope my monkeys will continue as well :)
I decided to make a canvas of my sunshine - my four monkeys and used a photo I made using Photoshop for the new facebook timeline big picture on the top of your page. Each of the photo's were from our trip out for Alex's 3rd birthday and show all my monkeys posing away especially the younger two!
I coloured the canvas using Dylusions inks and stencils and a white journalling pen for the stenciling.
I deocrated the canvas with some American Crafts Amy Tangerine Sketchbook papers and trims with a bit of fussy cutting, some Purple Pumpkin buttons and a stamp about family. With the title I wanted to follow the sun rays and changed the my to our so that my husband didn't feel left out :)
I hope you like the project and it gives you the push to try taking your scrapping off the page :) You should have already seen the wondrous creations of Susi on day one with Red and Sarah on day two with Orange if you missed them then head back to Creative Craft World to start at the begining there are some wonderful prizes along the way and a grand prize if you comment on each day's post during the week. Tomorrow you have a wonderful project from Trish for Green and believe me you don't want to miss it!
Finally as well as everyone who comments on all the blogs over the week being in a chance to win their own pot of gold everyone who comments on my post during the week will be entered into a sunshine prize from me. All comments must be in by 6th September and I will random.org and announce a winner on the 7th September. Good Luck to everyone :)
You've given me the incentive to have a go at a canvas. :o) Thanks, Michelle.
