Pawsing to Play

Sunday, March 10, 2013

I had a little bit of time to play this weekend so I did some scrappy stuff I needed to so as well as some stuff I wanted to do. I even did a small amount of shopping (shhhh).

I've been really inspired by a bunch of challenges lately. I seem to go in spurts that way, usually when I don't get a lot of consistent time to scrap.  When I do finally get some time, I've lost my place, or worse yet my mojo.  This LO is a result of three such challenges.  The sketch is Inspired Blueprints #85, the idea comes from both Scrap Your Story, use an animal and True XoXo Scrapbooking, use phone photos.

Pausing to Play

This is a game my younger son has played for years.  He closes the door and waits for us to play with him.  We get on the floor and peek under the door, stick fingers back & forth and listen to him giggle uncontrollably. This time, Snickers sat with me while we played, only I don't think he liked it very much.  I'm fairly certain Snickers thought something was wrong because the door was closed and he couldn't see my sone on the floor.  All he heard were the sounds and saw me on the floor.  Snickers was much happier after I opened the door!  

So what's the best camera I had at that time?  My phone.  I don't use Instagram (gasp).  I just print 4x6 and use those.  Can't tell the difference can you?  The colors in the photos are really neutral.  I grabbed  some Echo Park and went to town with it.  All I added was a little bit of Glitz and MME washi tape, then splattered a bit of Studio Calico and Tattered Angels  mist.

I enjoyed putting this together.  Glad to have somewhere to begin!
