Class 10 - Goodbye

The bright green is not a colour I would normally use but I liked how it picked up the lime colour in the glasses. I had picked a load of brads for this class (as per pre-class instructions) and added to as I had gone along. Using the classes guide on how many brads Darci had used I modified the number to fit into the space I had left after taking into account the size of the photo. My compiled brad collection was spread out over the desk and I tried not to look at the brad I picked up and just added it to the layout.

Looking at the three layouts - "Mum and I", "How Many Christophers" and "Goodbye" I have learnt that though I like the effect of using brads/buttons to make patterned paper I think that they detract from the photo. And the amount of journaling space available, without taking away the balance of the layout, is very small. These two facts means this sketch has to be one of my least favourites.
