LayOut for ASDR4

Here is the layout I made for challenge number 2, as I play along on the sidelines!
You can click here to go to the Elemental Scraps gallery for the credit information.

The photos are the ones I took for days 8, 10 & 11.

It's 3:00. Have you taken a picture yet? I haven't. I guess I better grab the camera and go find a subject!

Days 8 - 11

I took three of these photos for a layout. I am playing along with ASDR4, so I took these photos for the 2nd challenge which is due today! So as soon as I get these posted I have to go make my layout!

The challenge is CABIN FEVER. In the challenge it is both you and your partner, but seeing as I have no partner, I will do it all.

On Day 8 I took this photo of John. Because we live mostly on a fixed income, and with the price of fuel, we keep the temperature down a little. It is really hard on him, between his illnesses and his age, he runs around with his lightweight jacket on, plus gloves. I also bought him the "Snuggies" from the TV for Christmas. (The blanket with sleeves.)



Day 9

I am a substitute school bus driver. I took this after the kids got on board but before we headed out.



Day 10

John takes a lot of naps. He would much rather be outside, but because of the cold and snow, he isn't able to.




Day 11

This is the final photo for the layout. It is only 30 degrees outside. Definitely Cabin Fever weather and time of year.


I am off now to make a layout.

ASDR4 & Hummies World

I am so excited!!! I wanted to sign up for the ASdR4 (Amazing Scrap Digital Race year 4), but I procrastinated and was too late, so I decided to play along anyway. The first challenge is up. It is at Hummies World and the challenge is to scrap a photo that has been ripped/torn at least three times. Oh my gosh, I have never done that. She gives tutorials and a link to download pre-made tears. She has also talked to Atomic Cupcake and gotten them to give out a free action to make the edges torn. That is what I used.
So I took the photo from the other day of the deer and scrapped it. It really shows up those deer and I cleaned the photo up anyway. What do you think?


A little background: The reason it states this is not hiway 141; I am building a scrapbook to donate to the local museum. I live close to the SW corner of Colorado and HiWay 141 is a Scenic Byway. The route is quite beautiful. There are also some historic places along the route. I live 100 miles from the nearest city, so I am making the book about that section of the route. You can find more pages here: Hi Way 141

So I couldn't go to bed until I got it finished and posted it. Too exciting! I love to learn new techniques! I will have to do a few layouts using this technique so I don't forget how.

TTFN! Tess
