Smileark's Layouts

[Smileark]

Day One | Blind Scrap
My interpretation of the instructions:
My title is above the picture just not in the traditional sense
My journaling is below the picture-- it is cut out from the mask

Day Two | Make a List

Day Four | Photoless Layout

 

[Smileark]

Day Three | Text Spacing

 

[Smileark]

Day Five | Imperfect Photos
My photos the color was off, the focus was off (always on the walker not her), or the photos that were in focus have horrendous backgrounds. I ran a soft whisper action on the pictures and brightened the eyes to make the out-of-focus look intentional. But overall, I just chose to love them. Her joy was captured and that was the important part.

I realized that the kit I used wasn't in the shop so didn't know if I would have the 75% current product without it so I re-did it using a current kit.

Day Eighteen | Art Journal | This was so difficult for me. Completely out of my comfort zone.

After the pressure of having to complete the challenge was over, I sat down to try again, I didn't feel like I challenged myself the first time so I came up with this on the second try. Still out of my comfort zone but I think closer to the actual challenge.

Day Nineteen | Clean & Simple

Day Twenty | All About a Number

I have struggled with coming up with a number since this challenge was posted. Nothing seemed to work or I didn't think it was appropriate. And last night my hubby, said "I'm so tired of 'When I'm 5..."-- can we please move on to another saying?!?!" And its so true, 24/7-- we hear When I'm 5... 3 months and counting!
