Im hoping this is ok, I used my paint and combined it with my photo (many times over) to get this look!
I wasnt sure if that would count but I hope it does!!

 

Thanks for the challenge! This sad photo of my son who had to self-isolate again was crying out for this type of page. I chose to use the journal card.

 

Here is mine!

 

Here is my layout:


1.) Your photo and elements can only take up a maximum of ¼ of your page - check
2.) A neutral background paper - check
3.) One photo (with or without a stroke.) - check
4.) Some paint/small splatter - check
5.) A maximum of 5 small additional elements - check (Date tab, leaves, flower, stitches, chocolate heart)
6.) Some journaling is allowed (a title, date, word art) but keep it simple - check (date and title)
7.) Optional: Use of a journal card or one square of paper no larger than a journal card is optional - check - used a rectangle of patterned paper to mat the picture (layout will be printed as 8" x 8" so patterned paper is about the size of journal card).

 

Not sure why I had such a mental block for this one... this is usually my favorite challenge! And once I knew what I was doing, of course the page came together super quick.
