It's Scrapping the Little Things with My Creative Time! Recently one of my friends posted some pics of her son in the ER on Facebook just after a skateboarding accident. He's fine, just needed some stitches, but it made me think of a biking accident my son had when he was around the same age, and his injuries were in the same spots. I never had scrapped that story, so I pulled out those pics and got to work!
The patterned papers I used on this layout are from a Close to My Heart collection called Typeset. I used the Uppercase Fun Dies and Lowercase Fun Dies to make my title and the Stitched Circle Tab Die with a Circle Tab Die Sentiment to make the little element sticking off of the top picture.
The "All Boy" sentiment is from the Life is Good stamp set. I thought it went well with one of the Stitched Restroom Peeps, and a few of the Stitched Chevy Dies worked well as arrows!
To continue my title, I added an ampersand made with one of the Social Media Dies and spelled out "the aftermath" with stamps from Alpha Pack. I used one of the Tag Die Layers for my journaling. To give a visual triangle on the layout, I added some yellow elements with circles. That's where the view master came in to play, made with the What a View die.
Lastly, I added a bike made dies from Way to Go and paired it with a funny sentiment from that same set, stamped on a little "hill" I made with the Bunch of Fun Circle Dies.

ReplyDeleteThere were a lot of MCT sets used. What a fun layout...I like the bike on the little hill and & the aftermath. Not too funny at the time but glad there was nothing permanent from the accident. I like the touch of yellow and the titles always look awesome with the letter dies. Great layout.
