For my project I decided to make a layout that featured my sister's mothering skills.

I am so proud of the beautiful relationship

 she has with her children.

(I may not remember the curl of each wave or the prints I left in the sand, but I will remember that you were here with me!) 



Practical Scrappers is featuring projects with multiple stamps. I stamped directly onto my paper to mat my photos, then I outlined each photo mat so that it would stand out.

 For the smallest photos I outlined the stamping with a standard black ink pen. The next size of photo I used rub-ons to outline the photo mat. I outlined the largest photo with pearl strips.

To create my stamped photo mats I measured out exactly where I wanted my photo and then used those measurements to cut a mask.

I laid my mask on the paper, flush with edges of my page. When stamping my image I set the stamp half on the mask and half on the paper.

Rather than leaving the image completely in view, the stamping becomes a background that enhances the photo.
