Hey everyone!  My layout today has been inspired by the gorgeous August mood board.  There were so many fun and eye-catching elements featured in this month’s mood board that it was hard to just focus on one thing!   After much debating, I decided to work with the pastel colors from the board to create this layout using August kits!

I have really enjoyed using the mandalas in this month’s kits in a variety of different ways!  I wanted to create a bright and happy page that matches my daughter’s contagious smile in the photo.  That was not hard to accomplish with the papers in the kit!

I grabbed embellishments from each kit!  I also used Nuvo drops to line the clouds for a little extra dimension and interest.

The background was created using a combination of mediums inclusive of the Catherine Pooler inks included in the August Color kit; using the same ink pad, I’ve also included some tone on tone stamping!

I hope you’ve enjoyed my take on this month’s Mood Board Inspiration!  Thank you so much for stopping by!
