Challenge 4b

Here is the Challenge page:


Here is Kim's Page:


And here is my interpretation:



I had it lined up along the right hand side and I just couldn't stand it and moved everything to the middle and rounded the remaining corners. I can't help it, I'm all about symmetry.

I didn't have plans to do this challenge but when I saw Kim's layout I remembered recently running across a photo of my very similar car, so I thought I'd give it a shot. I used unusual sized paper and don't have an album to put this in, but it was fun creating it.

I used my cricut of course for the letters (still lovin that thing) but was too lazy to go and print the words for the journaling on my computer (although here I am now!!) I used a gel pen and when I went to erase the guide lines I smeared up the words. I am also too lazy to fix that but I will if I ever use this in album. I did not include the pictures of me with my big hair, ray-ban sunglasses and mini-skirt that go with it.

The page could probably benefit from one final snazzy embellishment, such as the ribbon bow in the other pages, but I don't have anything like that on hand so for now it's plain.

  2. Glad I inspired you! I usually wouldn't do the page to the side like that either but I am really stepping out of my box on these challenges. It is a really different type of scrapbooking and I am loving it.

    Way to scrap that memory :)

    What Cricut Cartridge did you use

  3. I used the one and only cricut cartridge that I own, which is the one it came with: Don Juan. I heard that it is only available with a purchase of the cricut create. Of course now I want more.

  5. I made a journaling mishap today when working on challenge 6b on the word 'more', the last word in my journaling and I jusy left it. Part of me wanted to fix it, but the other part of me is just happy I "captured the memory"...which is exactly what you've done here. Great job!!
