May layouts for Crop

May Crop layouts.... everyone will get 6 sheets of 12x12 papers which will allow them to use the matting and borders layout on their background papers. They must choose their own title and cut it from matching papers they have.

For mine I chose to do a layout of Brock planting the garden with Uncle Jason and decided to use REAL beans instead of buttons on my star flowers. Also made a dirt patch with beans.. Using patterns papers from the My Minds Eye (In Bloom) and coordinations  cardstock from my friends ebay store Lisa Harris  .  check here out she has some GREAT bargains!!
Some worry about the beans not being acid free.... well i always heard if you put a buffer behind them and they don't touch the pics they will be fine.So mine has a glue dot (acid free) and 2 layers of acid free paper and each layer of stars also have a pop dot behind them (acid free). I just thought was a cute idea to use the beans. Brock will love this !


Rosa decided to use the same pattern paper set and also coordinations cardstock from Lisa's shop for her 2 pg spread and since it worked great for her daughter and grandchildren pictures she choose the title Family for her layouts.
