SS #4 for me

Today I was able to participate in another speed scrap. You don't think I like them do you???? lol It all worked out again. So here are the instructions:

STEP 1- Choose 1 picture. Feel free to resize it so it’s smaller. Convert it to either back and white or sepia.
STEP 2- Pick 5 papers. 1 should be solid, the other 4 should be patterned.
STEP 3- Make the solid paper your background. Cut the patterned papers into strips and layer them behind your photo.
STEP 4- Frame your photo and add embellishments. Keep it simple. (Only use a few elements)
STEP 5- Choose a one word title. Title your layout using an alpha.
STEP 6- Date your layout using a tag or label.
STEP 7- Add drop shadows. You may journal if you’d like, but it’s not required.

I am really loving how these speed scraps help me think outside the box! :-)

A terrific layout Michelle!
I still haven't worked who had the leg problem...I need to go back and sift through the comments again. But I'm glad your little one doesn't have the problem.
Have a great day!
