10/29/16 - October "Round Robin" Challenge

Good Evening (it's 6:21 PM here)!

 

Today I am sharing w/ you my creation for the Scrapbook.com "October Round Robin" challenge.

Here is a brief explanation of the challenge:

 

"There are teams of 4 people, one person for each week, similar to a relay race. The person assigned for week 1 in each group will start their team off with a layout depending on what the specs and twist will be. Then the following week, everyone assigned to week 2 will lift off their week 1 team member and so on. It's fun to see how a lift progresses from the first week to the fourth."

 

 

I was the 3rd on my team.

In order to get an idea of what inspired my layout I will share the proceeding layouts as well.

The first 3 images were NOT created by me:

 

 

 

Starting Inspiration:

 

 

 

 

Twist for the players = "Include in your embellies some kind of a critter."

 

 

Week #1:

 

 

Week #2:

 

 

 

My layout (includes twist):

 

 

"The Birds"

Journaling: "I look out my kitchen window and see this...
Panini and Hamlet both love this corner of our yard but for different reasons:
Panini because she loves catching/eating the birds that stop by for food

and Hamlet because he loves eating the food the birds drop. 10/16/16"

 

 

 

Here's a close up of the photo:

 

Since the photo was taken from inside my house, through a window, far away from where Panini and Hamlet were, it's a bit blurry but it is such a common part of our every day life I wanted to scrap it.

Not all photos will be perfect but that doesn't mean they aren't "scrapbook" worthy!

 

 

 

Also heavily inspired by the following challenges:

 

>Use your Stamps
I stamped the cat and pig (in the circles)
*NO TWIST* - No twist given

>Movie Challenge - Use a movie as inspiration
*INCLUDES TWIST* of using a Horror Movie as inspiration -
