{you}

Here is a simple layout of my son, Jonah. Scott snapped the photo right before sunset, and I love the way the sunlight is hitting Jonah's face and hair. I wanted to incorporate that warmth into the layout and use that as the starting point for the theme of the page. So, I used a warm pumpkin orange for the background and inked it with brown. Under the {you} (which is done with printing press) I handwrote "brighten my day" to play along with the sunlit theme. I finished it off with some flourish stamps by Rhonna Ferrar and a circle (made with George) around Jonah's sweet face to draw even more attention to it.

Thanks for looking!
