06/28/18 - June 2018 "Ugly Paper" Challenge

Just sharing my layout for the June 2018 "Ugly Paper" Challenge

 

12x12

Traditional

 

 

Here are the rules of the challenge:

 

1. After signing up, the host gives your name and address to another participant

2. The other participant sends you 2 "ugly" papers and at least one ugly embellishment

3. You MUST use both papers; the embellishment(s) is optional

4. You are allowed to use other items as well, as long as the 2 "ugly" papers are included in the layout

5. You are allowed to alter the papers and, if used, the embellishment(s) but they must still be recognizable  

 

 

 The original Papers/Embellishment:

 

 

 

(Just FYI - my partner knows I don't care for "baby" papers or "flower" paper ... she tried to stump me, but I actually like these!)

 

 

 My creation: 

 

 

"Hey There, Adventure"

 

The journaling reads:

"When I told Madison her Daddy was in the sky getting ready to jump out of a plane, this is what she did.

February 18, 2007"

 

Photos from when my husband went Tandem Skydiving back in...2007; geez time flies!

My daughter was only 5 at the time - she's now 16.

I have not scarpped a single photo of this event so I'm glad to finally have done so... 11 years later!

If you can't tell I did use both of the ugly papers: the BG is the airplane paper and the roses around my daughter's photo I fussy cut out of  the rose PP.
I did not use the Ugly Embellishment.
I tried, I really did, but in the end it just did not work!

*BTW - I realized as I was posting the photo on Instagram that I used the BG paper upside down!
Oops, LOL .... Oh well!

TFL!
