Always glad to enter a Whimsical Wednesday. Their challenges are adding a lot of fun, and important stories to my albums. This is Fun with Colour Challenge #11.
I have been wanted to record Mr 3's funny habit for a year now.
For a long time when Drew was counting, he'd say... one two three four five six seffffennnn eight nine ten lemonnnnn. lol. It was adorable. So I have been waiting for a yellow challenge.
Except I knew I had ONE bit of paper which I had been saving for this lemon layout... I turned my scrap area upside down, inside out and back to front... do you think I could find the blasted sheet!!!??? Negative. So tomorrow I'll be dealing with a mountain of paper to re-sort and no doubt I'll find my page of lemons! Gah!
Stephanie at Whimsical Wednesday found this inspiration photo:
That is one awesome craft area!
So I stuck with only red, yellow and added the limey green in.
I used Mickey for one, Martha for 2, Elegant Edges and Robotz for 3, Seasonal Martha for 4, Hello Kitty for 5, 6 is Country Life? I think, 7 ??... not very helpful here am I?...
8 is Birthday Cakes,
9 is a butchered Ornamental Iron number, 10 was sumpin sumpin??? and lemon was Zooballoo. The actual lemon was from SCAL. The leaves were Accent Essentials. (Good ole Accent... it just keeps giving - it really is essential).
My gyspy says, 'PHEW. Too much cartridge hopping'.
Add some doodling, some Candi and my favourite Elegant Edges squiggle border cut. And I'm done.
I'm glad I scrapbook. The Little Mr has been such a naughty monkey today. I was soooo glad to see him in bed. But seeing his cute photos and some relaxing down time and it all washes away.
He is so cute in a Lemon million different ways.
Thanks Whimsical Wednesday for another awesome addition to my album. I love how it turned out and would never have chosen that mix on my own.
Such a great lay-out! He is so super sweet! I tore my craft room apart looking for my white gel pen one time... it is so frustrating to know you have something but can't find it! ( Now I own several!)
