Last month we celebrated my father's birthday with an ice-cream cake. Can you tell that he was pretty excited about eating the ice-cream cake? *winks*
But you know I've my folks "trained" for photo-taking before eating so......*LOL*
I had a lot of fun putting bits and pieces of patterned paper together on this layout. :)
The papers were assembled and glued down [so I don't change my mind and start fiddling]...then I added textural elements to soften hard edges and provide visual interest.

And what a great layout to preserve that memory! Nicely done, I love it~! Thank you for sharing!
