Snow Angle

     Vivian was treated to our one snow day while she was staying with her Grandma and Grandpa Cruikshank.  Her dad helped her down so she could make a snow angel.

AJ Challenge -- What MERRY means to me....

     I loved a mini Christmas kit and it reminded me of snow days which do make me very happy.  So I decided to go with that theme for my merry challenge.

Ouch!

     I took pictures after the shopping cart attacked my car in the Costco parking lot.  I knew I wanted to scrap it as an art journal type layout -- dark, brooding and sad.

     I have wanted  to use the small squares overlay for the longest time.  I decided it would be a layout about myself for a change. 
     The original photo had me posing right next to a cute, monster birthday cake.  The cake was obscured by the overlay and I used the RadLab to change the photo to an interesting sepia.  I wanted it all to blend into the background paper. 
     The kit came with a few violet elements which I thought complimented the grey very nicely.  It's kind of funny because I normally can't wear purple.

Resting at Thanksgiving

      I love this photo so much I used it on a Pixels and Company Speed Scrap.  I added some paper detail at the bottom of the paper stack after the speed scrap.  I love the color palette.  I opted for a sepia tone photo because the bright orange and navy in the photo just clashed with the elements.  It turned out just perfect to me.

Thanksgiving 2013

     I took this photo after Thanksgiving dinner this year.  I wanted to get Ewan's face in focus with the background in a blur.  It's not so noticeable in the black and white with the opacity reduced.  I'll have to scrap the photo again in color.

Car Mess

    Ewan was using all his big trucks and a noodle building toy to make a giant obstacle course.  I think the large photo gives an interesting perspective and the small photos offer clear detail.
