Happy Easter!

I hope you had an enriching Holy Week. We've missed most of the traditional Filipino activities this year like the Pabasa and the Visita Iglesia because Jeff and I were both sick. We decided to just stay at home for the Semana Santa.
Anyway, I'm sharing an Easter layout that I did last year but never got to post here. I made my own sketch  for this layout.

For the banners; first, I cut different colors of felt cloth into triangles. Then I sew each color of pompoms on the cloth. To add more texture on the page, I embellished the crochet flowers with velvet brads.

All the photos used were printed using Canon Selphy. I edited the photos and placed two wallet sizes into one 4"x6" photo thus saving on the print outs. For all of the 7 pictures, I only printed 5 pcs of 4Rs.

Making my own sketch for this two page layout was fun!
