Good Morning! Today's Peachy Keen Challenge was to make a summer themed shadowbox. This picture was taken in 1991 in CA. Those cute little boys are my sons, Rob and Scott. I love the expression of sheer delight on Rob's face, while his brother plays along the shore. I am not sure of what Scott is holding in his hand. Possibly a water gun? They were always the best of friends and still are. Where does the time go?
I printed the image onto a full sheet of photo paper. I trimmed along the horizon and cut a strip from the bottom of the photo to create the waves. I used the shark and the fish from PK-952, the cute little crab from PK-950, and PK-790, Boogie Board Max. I used MSS-04 for the sun and clouds. The images were colored with copics. I hope you will play along for a chance to win. Peachy Keen always has wonderful prizes! As always thanks for stopping by. I appreciate your visits. Have a great day! Oh and you will want to see what the other designers have created. You won't be disappointed!
So, so, cute Janice! I love this photo of your boys, you can sense the joy and fun they had at the beach that day!! You are also reminding me to get my camera out more often, because you're right, the months and years go by too quickly. Thank you for your super creative layout (love the stamps and photo looking like they're one in the same). Hugs, Angelica
