Outback 2015

I still have a bunch of un-scrapped photos from our outback trip in 2015. These ones are from our first visit to Age of Dinosaurs. The photos were backlit and a bit dark, and this was the best I could do with a bit of photo editing to lighten the shadows:


Materials
Mont Marte Signature - Black Paper sketch pad
My Mind's Eye Miss Caroline - Howdy Doody - Baby - Lacey patterned paper
Prima Fairy Flora Collection - Fairy Flora patterned paper
Crochet lace trim

Unbranded paper flowers
Gold sequins
Buttons from my habby stash
Cocoa Vanilla Free Spirit - Woodies button
Creative Embellishments Coffee flair button
Pink Paislee Heidi Swapp word phrase stickers

This is the second time I've tried this sketch; this time I used two photographs.



* CSI Challenge ~ Case File #396
I used the image prompt very literally, and I scrapped a food-themed photograph.

  5. Very cool! I like how you still used 3 photos but changed up the placement. I also like the black and white photos against the color scheme of the papers. Thank you for joining us at Challenge YOUrself!
