123 January Challenge

For January, the new challenge at 123 challenge blog was to use the following items to create a layout- colour - lemon, word- appreciate, technique - fold.
I had an idea in my head for this one, to use a photo of my 2 children, my daughter Melanie was assisting my son Kieran to choose his subjects for the next school year. I had an old careers book, that Kieran had highlighted, which I tore out and used on this layout. The word appreciate I used in my title. The colour lemon I feel complemented the photo, but the technique of folding was the trickiest part for what I had chosen to use with the photo. I ended up doing a simple fold of the book pages at the bottom of the layout, but I feel this worked well. I tried to replicate the theme of the book pages in my background work, with a letter/number template and a text stamp over the texture paste.
Thanks for looking at my layout, and for any comments you may leave.
Appreciate your sister
