something special
the 3 i’s
The word “special” can be defined as something that is just a little bit unique
and made with a specific purpose in mind. This issue’s project is no exception
and will undoubtedly be treasured for years to come.

One eye-catching detail of
Amy’s tray is the focal
photo
of
her
family that
she
attached
to the front edge
of
the
tray. It
really stands
out!

When I first saw this new collection, The
Good Life, by Fancy Pants, the heartfelt
phrases and sentiments on the patterned
paper and chipboard shapes made me think
about all of the things that make my life so
great, the most important being my family.
I had always wanted to create an altered
memory tray, and this collection was the
perfect choice for colours and patterns!
I gathered up my favourite family photos
and began designing each opening of the
tray. I really enjoyed the process of creating
mini canvases of art to fill each space. This
shadow box hangs on the wall of my family
room and is a constant reminder of my very
good life!
