I have discovered two FABULOUS Scrapbooking Challenges this week, I am on a scrapbooking run so this works for me. This layout is for both of them!! The first is the Scrap it With a Song Challenge where each week there will be a new song posted and we are to lbe inspired by the lyrics.
We can choose a particular lyric for the title, journaling or overall theme of the layout. You are also welcome to create something besides a layout!! I am late for this week's challenge, but just had to play anyway - I can't wait until the new challenge this week - I love the concept! This weeks song is 'Your Song' by Elton John - I love that song and chose the line...
'I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is, now your're in the world...'
My colours are inspired by the other fabulous Challenge The Color Room where each week we are given a different color palette - these colours are from last week, but I just loved them - I am yet to start this weeks!! I have used the Layers of Color art stamp set 'Joyful Noise' - perfect for this page.
This photo was taken when we first met - how could I resist him - he's adorable!! The title of this layout is so appropriate as we have said 'Hello' and have talked for nearly 22 years and still haven't run out of things to say!!
The hinges are Tim Holtz Grungeboard and are perfect here - I have painted them with Acrylic paint and sponged the little circles with a dark ink to look like brads - that way they fit perfectly!! It worked well, I thought!
