Shimelles: Challenge 12 - One Photo Twice

Well managed to squeeze in one last little layout in this weekend before Shimelles crop challenges closed. It was interesting though, trying to pick a photo to print out twice on the same layout!

Anyway I printed this one out of Samurai when he was a puppy having a snooze, nothing much changed over 13 years, boy did that dog LOVE his sleep!!! Really miss his snoring, gotten used to it over the years and am finding it harder to get used to the silence in the house.

Have a look at the challenge here

And this is my layout, I even dragged out the old sewing machine and made my own pleated ribbon!

Shimelles Challenge No. 7 Use a Pocket

Shimelles "Put it in a pocket challenge" inspired me to scrap this photo and to be able hide the journaling. Have a look at the challenge here
This photo has lot of meaning to me and was quite difficult to scrap, for one its just a lovely photo but most importantly this photo was taken on the last day that we were a family, our last walk in the forest together before Samurai passed away. So to even look at this photo fills me with tears.

I used an upcoming sketch from TS which I'll blog about next week when its released. I'm pretty happy with the result, combining Shimelles challenge and Twisted Sketches sketch has inspired me to produce a layout that really means a lot to Kenny and myself.

My hidden journaling if you can't read my handwriting says:
" I'd wish you were still with us and this hadn't been our last lovely day together."

Twisted Sketch #146

Another layout to add to my Antarctica album, if I ever get around to picking an album to put all these layouts in!!! Once again some brilliant inspiration from Twisted Sketches, have a look at this weeks sketch here:

So from that I created this layout
