Scrap the Boys July challenge

The challenge this month at Scrap The Boys is to be inspired by this image:

I had a couple of photos perfect for this layout, but chose this one of my nephews having some fun at the beach. 

I created the background to my layout with texture paste, a resist spray and then used the Ken Oliver Colour Bursts, (my fave mixed media product at the moment). 

I tore some papers and layered them to look like water from the ocean. I aded some prills, hand dyed muslin and shells. 

I used a Charms Creations cute cloud, that I cut in half and set to the top of the layout, and also added a Charms Creations super star. 

I had a lot of fun with this layout. 

Thanks for looking at my layout and for any comments you may leave.
