"Heaven" Layout for American Idol Challenge

Hey everyone!

Just sharing a layout I did for the American Idol Challenge at Flying  Unicorn! For this week's challenge, we had to chose a song title from either the Rolling Stones or The Who. I chose the Stones of course! As I was browsing thru the list of songs..I saw the song "Heaven". I knew I wanted to use it and a picture of a sweet boy, Lennon and his mom. Lennon went to Heaven last September after a tough fight with cancer. No child should ever have to suffer such a dreaded disease..but he never lost his smile. And though I never met him personally, he really had an impact on me and my family and how we look at tough times. We prayed for him every day and never went a day without talking about him and his love for life.

I used Bo Bunny Country Garden Collection for this layout. I apologize for the dimness of the pictures..it's gloomy outside today!
I started by blending some Stormy Sky and Crushed Olive Distress inks around the distressed edges. Masked the fence using the same mix of inks and painted some Prima flowers with some Glimmer Glazes. The Glazes, Inks, Flying Unicorn flowers and Shabby Chic Bike are all from the Flying Unicorn Store.
