Studio J Convention Layout #1

I am excited to be able to attend the Close to My Heart Convention in Dallas, TX this summer!  Close to My Heart sent out instructions to all Convention attendees to make 5 Studio J layouts that would be delivered to us while at Convention.  The instructions included some techniques that I had not done before.  Step by step instructions were provided, but we were free to change the layouts as needed to suit our photos.  I was happy to learn a lot and completed 5 layouts!

Here is layout #1-

Kit: Lucy
Pattern: Stars Above
Techniques: 

• Deleting unneeded photo wells
• Using text boxes to cover up portions of the pattern
• Cropping My Stickease borders to make ribbon streamers.
