Musik i Massor

by Guest Designer Camilla Ekman

Camilla is our guest designer this month and created a GORGEOUS layout for us!

My son loves music and here he is with his guitar. The color combo is perfect for his onepiece. I have used some older paper collections here, but they are some of my favs. I love to frame my photos with die frames and flowers. I have also used one of my favourite Prima stamps – the fence.

Camill'as signature feminine, yet clean, style comes through so strongly with her paper and embellishment choices.

A few fabulous final touches pull the project together!
