White with SUMMER

This is my layout share for the final White with 1 challenge for 2025.

Here's the mood board and challenge criteria ~

BLUE, YELLOW and SAND on a WHITE background to create a happy vacation layout.  I started with a simple mixed media background {Ranger Tim Holtz - Peacock Feathers distress ink} and added small pops of the other colours. I coloured the chipboard title with white paint pen {Dusty Attic Hello April chipboard set + Pilot Pintor -White 8mm pen}.

I'm sharing my page at Simon Says Wednesday for the Anything Goes theme.
