After my last “Wonderland” lay out, I had troubles to start another one.
I wondered through the house, looked at my photo’s, looked for my mojo,
did something else (cleaned the kitchen!) looked at my photo’s again and finally started a lay out with the Word Up #45 “Fun” (OLW challenge).
It turned out to be NO FUN at ALL!!!
Worked a few hours on it, and it became more and more ugly. It’s gone now! Threw it away! (after ripping of the, already glued, alphabet to re-use)
Sorry guys, but it was way to ugly to show – or even tell more – about that one.
Let’s forget OLW this time!
So, looking for fun on the Internet then, I came along Jessica’s blog and there
she wrote this:
“So, I tagged Lisa for the 6th pic in the 6th folder thingy and she left me this comment today “Now I dare you to go back and show us the 6th layout you ever made… that should be fun!! 😉 ” ….great idea… right..
………………..
Wanna play… Find the pic of the 6th layout… and post it… c’mon and leave me a link so I can see it… can’t be any uglier than mine!
OK, I was in for some fun so I looked up my first album and started
counting the pages….
This was what I found as my 6th lay out! (made that 6 or 7 years ago)
Journaling:
“On March 25th 1971, dad and Nout buy a steel fishing boat called “Jacomina”.
They want to become fishermen.
The boat is known under it’s registration name “Vlissingen 2” ’cause Nout doesn’t like the name “Jacomina” and takes the sign off.
Dad quits fishing in 1974 and sells his half of the boat to Nout.
Early morning, on September 1975, Nout stumbles off of the quay and drowns in the harbour of Colijnsplaat. He’s 32 years. Nout couldn’t swim…”
(Nout was a very good friend of our family. I was almost twelve when he drowned. My son is named after him.)
