Challenge YOUrself #137

 


I have finally found a scrapbooking challenge that I can submit one of my pages into!
This challenge requires you to be in the photo that you are submitting and I have found a page that I made and hadn't blogged yet that has our family in it from a holiday up north last year.



Butterflies is the challenge theme and I had one hour left of this challenge to submit it!


Scrapbooking Challenge !



This is me and my whole family so I have permission to post this on my blog.

I work in disability and we did a six-week scrapbooking challenge with some of our participants. The layouts couldn't be too challenging so this was one of the pages that we put together with Designer Series paper, some butterfly & alphabet dies and a black marker pen. If you still have your Triple Banner Punch from a few years ago that makes the flagging easier but it is also just as easy with a pair of scissors too.

This day was a warm day but the actual pool was freezing! 
There was no way I was getting in there!

Here is what it looks like




Looks a bit green but that is because it is fresh water and located miles from any beaches.  
It really is clear.

This page is not difficult and I had found a sketch a few years ago which I loosely based this page on. 
I am really happy with how it worked out and that it was easy with my coordinating supplies from Stampin' Up!
