Heart2Heart Challenges: One
It's time to kick off the year with the first Heart2Heart Challenge: ONE. I was stumped for a bit on what to create and then it hit me!
This hybrid layout started with an Express Collection in Studio J. I wanted to preserve a funny family story about our then-two-year-old daughter and her favorite song, "Yellow Submarine" (which is on our Beatles 1 CD, hence the H2H tie-in). I was able to find digital images of the CD cover and Yellow Submarine artwork, but I didn't have a digital picture of our daughter. I went ahead and created the layout and changed the photo well on the left page into a matte only.
After my Studio J layout arrived, I found a picture that coordinated with the layout. I added two Cricut shapes for more (handwritten) journaling and then embellished the layout with all kinds of doodads (mostly retired but the red enamel gems are current).
Now the story of "Lo Sa Marie" and our family's love of the Beatles is preserved for all time.

I still smile over that "Lo Sa Marie" day'! That girl knew the words to dozens of songs by the age of two. No wonder she now enjoys band, chorus, and piano! She was born to boogie. Great layout!
ReplyDeleteI love that story! Cute layout, too.
