04/01/19 - "Use Your Stuff" Challenge #353

This Week's "Use Your Stuff Challenge" is to be inspired by the term Fuzzy Wuzzy.

In case you don't know Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear.

It is a Nursery Rhyme and this is one of the popular versions of it:

"Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear.
Fuzzy Wuzzy had no hair.
Fuzzy Wuzzy wasn't fuzzy, was he?"

Though that isn't the version I grew up with.

I knew it as:

"Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear.
Fuzzy Wuzzy lost his hair.
Then Fuzzy Wuzzy wasn't fuzzy anymore"

Regardless of the difference in the telling, the basic story is the same.

And this is what it inspired me to create:

"Furry Friend" 

Looking at it now,  I guess my TN page leans more towards "furry" than "fuzzy"

but it is about an animal, which is what Fuzzy Wuzzy was!

This is a photo of my dog Ivanna (RIP) and my mom's dog when my mom came by to visit one day (back in Nov 2012; I just realized I forgot to date this page).
For those who don't know  from my previous Blog posts or my Instagram, Ivanna is the white dog.
As you can see from the photo, Ivanna was very curious.
Fluffy was... scared.


This is the first Travelers Notebook I ever started and it's getting full.
I'm having a bit of trouble w/ it because the previous pages are causing it to "buckle and bow".
For that reason, it's just easier now to not put anything on the opposite page, though I realize it does look a bit plain. ::shrugs::
Despite that, I had fun w/ this page and love the final look of it.
Besides just loving the overall look, I really love that I was able to fit a lot of different embellishments in such a small space.
And though it's a minor piece of the design, I really like the look of part of one of the embellishments hanging off the page.
Who says we have to stay in the lines?! ::wink::

I would love it if you came to play w/ us!
But even if you don't create a project, I would love it if you shared w/ me what version of "Fuzzy Wuzzy" you know!
