Love of my Dreams ***Frosted Designs***

One night I was playing around with my phone when Brandon was about 8 months old.  I was using the light of my lamp and the sepia section on the camera of my phone and I got this wonderful photo of him.



This layout was made using only cardstock for the Frosted Designs Challenge to use only Cardstock.  I hope you can come out and play too!!

On the outside blue border paper I used a stamp with black ink.  I also used a mask and mist to create the swirl on the top right blue paper (it does not show that well on this photo).  I also used distressing and hand drawn swirls on the blue paper below the picture.

The "Dreams" chipboard were made from an old stash I had that were yellow.  I painted them brown, then stamped them with a swirl stamp in black ink to give the swirl effect on them, and lastly I used a crystal stickles to make them shimmer.  I used the same technique on the chipboard below the picture, but without the ink swirl effect.
