Zany You

  Lori Burdeshaw

Who doesn’t love the perfect picture? The one in which our perfect child is wearing the perfect outfit, perfectly posed, and with that perfectly adorable look on their face. My daughter was that child…a photographer’s dream. But then there was my son…a photographer’s nightmare. At a very young age, he discovered the art of making silly faces. And he liked to practice this newfound hobby at the very second the camera button would click. Since this was pre-digital camera days for me...trying to get a non-silly shot could be very frustrating.

 

Recently, I came across a box of pictures that I had previously deemed NOT scrapworthy-- lots of silly shots with wagging tongues, crinkled up noses, and bulging eyes. But now that he’s almost a teenager, I look at these goofy pictures in a whole new light. They just show what a fun and happy boy he was…and still is.

 

The layouts on this page ARE perfect—perfectly fun and zany!

 

 

Design notes: I think the way Danielle layered the flowers on top of the picture really gives the layout a nice 3-dimensional look. And the bows around the letters are just the perfect touch.

Funny Girl by Danielle Mertz.  Supplies: Paper, Flower behind Photo, Flower overlay, Ribbons and bows, and Word art: all by Anita Designs (nanas attic.blogspot.com), Orange circle stitch by Tabby Lewis; Staples by Doxie Designs.

 

 

 

Journaling: I can always count on Ava to do something silly to bring a smile to my face.

 

 Design notes: For beginning digi scrappers like me...it is nice to add drop shadows to certain elements on your page to create the illusion of depth. I applied one to the title to make it stand out a bit more. Try adding one today!

Silly Girl by Melissa Singh.  Supplies: Shabby Princess All in One Download, Shabby Princess Festival.

 

 

Journaling: Never before has someone been more Unforgettable in every way.

 

Design notes: I really like that even though there are so many fun things to look at on this page, Laura has matted and placed the photos in a way that they are still the main focus of the layout.

Unforgettable by Laura Kockelkorn.  Supplies: Mr. Funk kit by Dawn Stocstill (Miss HuniBuni) and Ashley Olson at The Digi Shoppe; folds:  Karah Fredricks, Staples:  Jenn Patrick, Label:  Gina Cabrera, Arrow: Ashley Olson, Woodframes:  Windgefluester.
