I finally finished my baking today (except I still need to dip the Buckeyes in chocolate) and after I got the kitchen cleaned up it was time for some fun and games with Ryley and the dogs.
I made the title in Photoshop using the font "Impact." I believe that the decorative buttons are from Making Memories, but don't quote me on that! I've had them for such a long time that I forgot where they came from.
I've been using my iPhone ALOT for my December Daily album this year. The lighting in our apartment isn't the greatest and because we are only getting about 6 hours of daylight here in the winter it is hard to get photos taken indoors without a yellow cast. I hate to use a flash because the lighting is then too harsh. So when it comes to choose which photo to print and put my albums I find that I am trying various color correction techniques. On this particular layout I pretty much said "never mind the color correcting (but in a not-so-nice choice of words) and changed my photos to black and white. I am so glad I did!
The small photo with the journaling card mounted to the back is attached to the black and white 4x6 picture using washi tape. I am becoming a HUGE fan of washi tape! The "nice" stickers are from Basic Grey's "Aspen Frost" Collection. The photo was taken from one end our our hallway with Ryley at the other getting ready to through the ball to Zoe. She had a really, really good workout this afternoon!
I put the score of our Scrabble game on the photo. Ryley beat me...
Thanks for taking time out of your busy days to stop by and read! I hope you have all of your holiday plans made, ccokies baked and presents wrapped!
