I managed another two yesterday, but didn't get them photographed till this morning.
CHALLENGE #12
The challenge was to use one photo twice......I used this sketch from PAGE DRAFTS
and came up with this
This photograph of Stuart and DH is one I've been waiting to scrap for a while now, and I thought the repetitive picture idea would be ideal for it, as (as the journalling says) 'THE BIG PANCAKE' was read constantly for months! Stuart absolutely loved this story, and it was always the one he brought to us, and asked anyone who visited to read to him.
CHALLENGE#10
Something bold- use two pics on a bold background.
I used an old ice cream print from DCWV, which I've had for years ...I have to say I have used lots of older stash for these challenges, which I'm rather pleased about!
I used GLITTER GIRL'S layout for my inspiration for this one!
Although Kirsty looks as though she might be saying how delicious the ice-cream was, she was actually telling me to stop taking photos of her with her mouth full!
I reckon that's me completed as many challenges from the crop as I'm going to...time to tidy up a bit!
If you missed THIS POST, there's a bit of a giveaway at the end of it...you have till tomorrow night to leave a comment to be in the draw.
Thanks for dropping by!
take care of you

ReplyDeleteI say, you've been quite productive. 2 pages, 2 photos each - well done. I need to get back and tackle a couple more of Shimelle's challenges too.
ReplyDeleteYou have been busy! I love challenges as I seem to get more done. Probably because I am more focused LOL
ReplyDeleteLove the layouts. Isn't it great using up older stash!
The layouts look great! I especially love how you used a color photograph and then a b&w of the same one for your first layout! And the colors in the second are definitely bright.... love them!
ReplyDeleteI remember reading that book to my lot, lovely layouts Alison x
ReplyDeleteThat repeating photo idea is so impactful (is that a word?). It brings the subject of your page into such sharp focus. Love it.
