Monkey Girl~Digi Layout

Here’s what I finally came up with for the pictures of Amy climbing the tree…

I thought I’d try making it just a tad larger so you could see it better. Please let me know if this is too big, though.

I tried doing this one as a 2 pager, but the template I chose as my starting point just wasn’t doing it for me. I closed the layout down and did some crocheting instead, so my brain could simmer on what I wanted to do. This morning, I scrolled through my digital templates and kits and found one called Monkey She, Monkey Do, and it flowed from there. One of the fun things I did (at least I thought it was fun) was to add the little girl monkey to the tree image. I used my eraser tool in PSE 7 and took away some of the tree so that she looked a little more natural, like she was meant to be there. I liked the result. I didn’t think it needed much journaling, other than the title and date, because the layout itself shows what is going on. Also, I couldn’t figure out a spot for any journaling anyway. LOL

Thanks so much for stopping by, I hope you have a great day today. Remember  the armed services members and their families who gave the ultimate sacrifice so that we could enjoy all that America has to offer.
