Spring Chicks

I'm back with another project for Twilight Crafts and Jenny Wren Cut-Files. This time I took the camera from the Hobbies Elements 2 set and used it as a large embellishment on my page.

I had four 3x4 photos of cygnets, goslings and coot chicks in our local nature park and I cut the camera at the same size to fit a rough grid. 

I backed the camera with patterned paper, picking colours from the photos. However, just taking my colours from the photos would have given me quite a dull page. I looked in my scraps box for colour inspiration and found a stripe and a green from the same collection. I then pulled orange, blue and brown papers to match the stripes. 

I layered torn strips on the right, matted my photos on the four colours and butted up four 3" strips on the left of the page. I then made up three embellishment clusters from punched and die-cut shapes using the same papers again.
