Hello Cool Kid | Masters Entry Task 4 - Budget Saving technique

Hello there!! Today I'm sharing the last of my Masters Entries... 

Task 4 - Incorporate a budget-saving technique into your layout

This would have to be my most favourite photo of my 7 year old Nephew. He's a lot like Leila lately and won't stay still for photos, but when he does, they turn out pretty awesome! Choosing products to compliment the photo was easy. The colours within the Cocoa Vanilla Studio 'Made of Awesome' Collection worked perfectly, and the cool sayings within the range really suited this 'Cool kid' ! The challenging part of this task was finding the right way to show how I could incorporate the budget-saving technique. 

I used a few different 'budget saving' techniques around the page. The main one being the negative sticker from the alphabet sticker sheet..  and the multi pattern 'paper' under the photo is actually from the collection kit packaging.

I used the barcode from the paper strip - reused as part of the title cluster

the "rock star" strip is actually from the barcode strip also, but works perfectly as an embellishment

And lastly part of the packaging for this sentiment cluster
