I DARE YOU!!!!

Hello everyone! Today for the Just Imagine/Kreaxions blog post I’m featuring a two page layout. The pictures tell a story about how my husband swung my grandson just a wee bit too hard in a hammock and Noah fell out. He wasn’t hurt, just a bit shaken up thankfully, but the pictures are priceless to me. So I used my June sketch for the left side, then changed it up a bit for the right side. As you can see on my border punch, I used Kreaxions Punch #916 without any templates. I simply punched alternating from the top and from the bottom of the paper to give the border some interest. Then I used the “arrows” that were cut away for my journaling pointers. The butterflies (Kreaxions Punch #604) give the layout some direction and interest, and of course all the circles were cut with the AMAZING Kreaxions Circle Cutter. I used my computer to journal, a pen to fake stitch (since I don’t sew) and some number stickers and Thickers finish it off.

I’d never tried this technique with a punch before and got brave (after all, it’s JUST a piece of paper!) but I will certainly be using it again! SO I DARE YOU!!! Try something new and different with YOUR punches! If they turn out, be sure to share with us!

I also have another LO to share with you. I used my June Just Imagine/ Kreaxions sketch again, but this time it doesn't have any punches on this LO about Garrett’s joy over a new walker. He was so happy to be mobile! (Now he's only 9 months and he's just about walking!!! YIKES!!! The pictures say it all!
