Family Heroes

Tia's Tips: Creating a scene around your focal image doesn't have to be overwhelming! Start small and slowly build your skill. I'm fairly new to creating backgrounds and scenes around my images and found that focusing first on things like the ground, sky (with and without clouds) & trees, has been encouraging! Using a reference image or photo is definitely helpful! Give it a try and enjoy the journey it take you and your images on!

The Projects:

I enjoyed my Mother's Day this year a little early and didn't get the opportunity to show the card I made for my own mother, and now we are on the heels of Father's day! So I decided to step back and showcase the cards I've made for the Heroes in my life!

This is a gorgeous set with the to-go-cup seen here. There is also a coffee cup with a single daffodil bud. There are several beautiful phrases in the set as well. I used a die for the yellow banner, twisted some gold twine, 1/2 of a cupcake doily and newsprint design paper from Stamp'in Up.
