Break from the Usual Programming....

Anyone getting sick of elephants yet? I'm not but a bit of variety is good and healthy ....





The challenge was to incorporate one predominant colour into the layout, scraplift a favourite, use little or no journalling, and incorporate a number into the title. 

The picture is of my nephews in Australia and when I last visited I got my sister to upload loads of favourites onto a disk.  This photo was taken some years ago, so I don't know any of the detail - which suited the "no journalling" aspect.  A predominant colour is blue - the Crate Paper shaped paper background has a delicate blue grid pattern on it.  I scraplifted a favourite in my UKS gallery by Craftystash - because I loved all the elements in her layout - the colours, the choice of papers, but particularly the design - especially the stitching. 

This layout is too busy for my taste, but I got the main elements in - and I used old stash, too by colouring my chipboard letters in with Promarkers, and then clear embossing them to match the colours in the layout.  Patterned papers are Fancy Pants Delight, We R Memory Keepers White Out and Crate Paper Mia.  Other products in the title are some Making Memories rub-ons, some black plastic letters, and some K & Co paper alphabet letters that I got in a huge kit some years ago. 

Normal service will resume tomorrow!  :)
