Layouts From A Previous Paperclipping Live

I haven\\u2019t had a chance to share the scrapbook pages from Dedra Long\\u2019s visit to Paperclipping Live a while ago. Here they are below\\u2026\\n

Hello Kitty\\n
The photo on the left is myself around 4th grade\\u2013just a little older than my daughter, Trinity, in the photo on the right. I chose pictures of us in similarly shaped outfits and poses to emphasize the theme of commonality. Journaling reads: I adored Hello Kitty as a little girl and still do at age 36. I love her oval round face and the simplicity of her design. As a kid I didn\\u2019t get enough of her to feel satisfied so I love getting to enjoy her again through Trinity, who loves her too.\\n

The Details

The Details\\n
Almost all of the scrapbooking items on both layouts are from Theresa Collins. I salvaged all the Hello Kitty items from actual H.K. stuff\\u2013a backpack, a watch, party invitations, plus there are a few pictures. The spinner arrow underneath the tiny H.K. on the clock is a Tim Holtz spinner that I painted pink.

Want help layering embellishments the way you see them layered in the center circle? If you have a Paperclipping Membership, I recommend watching Paperclipping 94 where I showed the techniques and principles of layers that lead in a \\u201ccrescendo\\u201d toward a climactic point.
