Making My Own Background Pattern

I was thinking about a layout today. I wanted to make my own background pattern and use some alphas that didn't have any vowels. I started with a piece of white cardstock.


I glued the alphas all around in no particular order.



I added gesso to tone down the colors.



I know the camera doesn't pick it up but I sprayed with handmade gold simmer mist. Also I added slashes of Blackberry, Perfect Pearls Mandarin, and Perfect Pearls Forever Blue mists.
Now to find just the right photo.



 Here it is. This is a little boy that goes to my church. He had his pawpaw's glasses. I matted the photo on 2 pieces of 6x6 pattern paper from Stampin' Up!, added some stickers from my stash and here you go.







I forgot the "e" in hide but went back and added it.

What do you think? Please leave a comment telling me what you think about my layout.

Thanks for stopping by!
