I'm not a great fan of reds and blues but wanted to give it a try this week and I ended up loving the end result.
My colors are a little bit more muted than the actual color scheme.
This is how I cracked the case:
I sprayed the background with gesso and added paint (liquid medium) with stencils, stamps and through spillage (behind the photos). I attached the journaling strips with staples (metal)
My journaling says:
"What mountains you will climb, what joys you will have, I know there will be tears and struggle as well. But my prayer is that you will grow into the man you're meant to be."
