22-PARACAIDISMO: Materia Pendiente (Parachuting: a pending subject)

Im back after a month! I wish my days were longer so I could scrap every day!
I explain all the process in my blog, how I used a couple of watercolor effects with the ranger inks to create some of the background papers, the stamping with the 2 different colors in my title letters... and TONS of photos and closeups, plus the whole story of this, one of my dreams... parachuting... a pending subject in my life, and that event that took me closer to it.

Here a few closeups and parts of the creating process as well:

Stamping of the alphas to integrate them to the colors of the case better:

Comment by Debbi Tehrani on June 17, 2012 at 1:44pm: So many fabulous and thoughtful details on here, Carolina. Loved reading about this on your blog.

Comment by Carolina Ghelfi on June 13, 2012 at 3:50pm: Oh Thanks Jacynthe!!! what a wonderful comment... don´t know if i deserve all these treats :)
You are very kind and YESSSSS I enjoy SO MUCH working on each LO... trying different things... I don´t content myself with just "placing" elements on a page... I need them to speak for me some way or the other... you can´t imagine how much I have missed you all during this month I couldn´t participate. Thanks again! :)

Comment by Jacynthe Loubier on June 13, 2012 at 3:09pm: Hola Carolina:) So glad to see you back. Congratulations on making the Watch List.

I always enjoy seeing just how much thought and work go into all of your layouts. I'm glad that you show the close-up shots because I probably would miss some of the details such as how you stamped over the title letters. That is such a neat idea. I love how you worked with the inks to make your papers match the challenge colours. The embossing behind the photo, and the row of tied ribbons on the photo mat, look great too. It's easy to see that you really enjoy the process of putting a page together. TFS:)

It was really fun to work on this page, both for what that moment meant to me and for the experimentation with the inks that I've done for the first time :)

And thanks Shauney for your welcome, missed you too!!
