I like to buy paper. I may have Issues. It's a fact. My boys are getting older. Also a fact. Truly, I have no need for planets and rocket themed papers anymore. But I needed it! (Issues) It's a good thing that I like to take themes and ideas and put them to work for me interpreting them in other ways. So really, here is a perfect example. Yep, rockets and planets for umm...swimming? Yes I did.
But I have to tell you, the real reason for my having this My Minds Eye Blast Off collection was these photos right here! My boy is a back stroke specialist! I caught his take off (see what I did there) frame by frame. Well, I couldn't just choose one photo out of the group could I? What did I do, well, I put them at an angle!
This My Minds Eye Blast Off collection caught my eye for another reason. This Plaentoids paper. It screamed "fussy cut" at me. So I did. I cut it apart, then put it back together into another shape. Itall of those works well as a home for all of those photos!
So this is it. the very last swim meet ever for him. I wanted to take in every moment. I wanted to permanently remember some of my favorite things about him swimming. For years he has been best at backstroke (regardless of what he says). I was so happy to capture his takeoff in sequence. His takeoffs are amazing. He goes so far under water and I don't know how he does it. I have loved every minute of his meets and will miss watching him swim.
