Show Me How

During the Embrace Imperfection workshop at BPC, I enjoyed seeing Karen Grunberg's layouts as she gave examples of "imperfection." She has a distinctive style that includes long titles, lots of white space, and lines of stitching. She also contributed to this month's Masterful Scrapbook Design series on Titles. I drew from all that inspiration to create a layout highlighting a photo of my great-nephew watching my dad as he worked to repair something at the desk (I can't remember now what he was trying to fix).

I pulled a sheet of off white cardstock and the TEACH Bingo card from my stash. The photo mat was in my stash of items from some scrapbooking swaps I participated in two years ago. I recently sorted all my extra letters (stickers, die-cut, Scrabble tiles, foam, etc) by letter and have them near my craft table in a bin. I pulled the bin and found letters for the title. Such a fun layout to complete.

Journaling Reads: I love this photo of Andrew watching Daddy working at the desk. It reminds me that we are always teaching by what we do each day.

On another note, I was awarded the Liebster Award again! Thanks so much to Rachel for being a regular visitor and honoring me with this award. If you have a moment, stop in and see the layouts she's completed for her Document 2011 project.
