Kathy's first 'Safari' layout

Good morning!

Kathy has created a fun and wild layout using our newest 

Scraps Of Darkness kit 'Safari' 

She started with 2 different Graphic 45 papers and ripped the bright green on the top and bottom and created layers simulating the slopes of the hill.  Before gluing the top layer down she glued down black thread to give the layout some texture. 

 
She began assembling the photo mats and various layers using both paper collections.  She started with a elephant image from the Safari collection and matted it with frayed burlap then cut a small piece from the left side of the image and glued it to the far left side of the photo mat. 

The black photo mat was created by using an image from one of the Kaisercraft papers and gluing it to the bottom of another Kaisercraft "Into the Wild" paper.  Both are included in the Coordinating Paper Add-On. 
In the center of the layout she created little layers of G45 chipboards and die cuts.  The chipboard is included in the Elements Add-On and the die cuts comes with the Main Kit.  She also sprinkled little flowers and created little clusters around the layout using the flowers are in the Floral Add-on. 

The little zebra strips were cut from the top and bottom of the "I'm Wild About You" phrase.  Above the strip on the right top side she used one of the little circle tags included with the Main Kit that stamped and inked around the edges,  then applied one of the circle die cuts from Graphic 45 which comes in the Main Kit.
