Mud Run

 We are back to a mild day here in Ontario. Mother Nature is just adjusting our temperature like throwing out Power Ball numbers. Oh well, we just enjoy these nice days as they come.

Its been awhile since I’ve posted a scrapbook page. This is one of my favourite layouts. Hope you like it.

Our youngest grandson loves the outdoors including doing children’s obstacle courses and marathons geared for young children. On this particular day, the race was scheduled for a day after a major rain storm. There was no cancellation….. but there’s nothing a boy likes more than getting dirty. Luckily my daughter knows how to take just the right photos to tell the story - hence the muddy knees photo.

The photos were computer generated on a template and then printed out. I used the royal blue cardstock as the background to pick up the blue in his jacket. The beige cardstock was smooched with brown and blue ink and the edges were frayed for even more grunge look. Then splatters were stamped in brown using Stampin’ Up grunge stamps. Some brown ink was watered down and that was splattered across the page as well. Then the photo layout was mounted on brown and glued down. The title was some die cut a few times and glued together for some dimension and painted brown. The journaling was computer generated; mounted on the same brown cardstock and glued down. The tag on the bottom was stamped on green cardstock; mounted on brown as was his name and the year tags. This picked up the green grass colour. I did make a companion page which I'll post next time. 

That’s all for a mild Monday on February 20, 2024.2.20

Cheers
