Some Day...

Amanda over at The Studio asked us to create a page that focuses on PLAY. This could be in the form of photos of your kids playing or you could 'play' with a new technique or colour combo on your page. Use your imagination!

Supplies from May Scrapbook Circle kit: Emma's Shoppe Collection - Dolls, Books, Inventory and Accent Cuts papers, 6x6 ribbon, phrase stickers; Girls' Paperie Karlee chipboard alphabets monochromatic. Not in kit: Emma's Shoppe die-cuts, Adornit multi red tiny alphas, Tattered Angels Mists in Brick Red and Pearl.

I chose to focus on several things "play" related.  The most obvious is my daughter playing dress-up by sporting her big sisters shirt or maybe she was playing football or perhaps she was playing kitchen because of the apron. I'm just not sure but I do know that she was sooo cute and she was having a ball!  I also chose to play with mists to alter some of the alphas that came with the May kit from Scrapbook Circle.

I needed to do something to make the cream/black alphas show up against the cream background of the bracket.  I sprayed them all at once with the brick red mist. I let them sit a few seconds and then turned them over onto a paper towel to soak up the saturated mist.  I only let them soak on the towel a mili-second because I didn't want it to soak up too much of the mist.  I like how they turned out.

Check out how the other design team members at The Studio chose to PLAY with their layouts and PLAY along with us for your chance to win the April prize that's up for grabs!

I love catching pictures like that of Nate. I have one I never scrapped that is just as silly and mixed up. I need to dig that out... Great layout on this, too! :)

that is just a SUPER fun layout, and the prompt "play" is great! Makes the scrapbooking part more fun!
