This months challenge over at the Scrap The Girls challenge blog is to "Dress like you're going to meet your ex-boyfriend"... This "Knock your socks off" challenge has been interrupted in many different ways by their design team and to start with I wasn't sure how to view this challenge either..
Until I realised that I still have a tonne of amazing photos of me quite frankly looking amazing and fierce taken just a couple of months ago. I bit of pay back to an ex-bf.
This pose was actually MY IDEA! This is the one that I wanted done! it features my
LOOK WHAT YOU MADE ME DO
LOOK WHAT YOU MADE ME DO
face and fierce confidence and that I'm better off without his old sulky, entitled ass!
Sorry, Not Sorry
This title is actually something I used to say to him quite often as a joke.
(Sorry for stealing your pillow. Sorry for hogging the blankets.
Sorry I'm always the last one to get ready. Sorry for eating most of your dessert. )
Now though, no longer joking. Not sorry! I had my eyebrow raised pretty much the entire time making this layout with such self satisfaction that I haven't felt in quite a while.. lol

I have such amazing feelings about this photo and about this layout!
The colours are soft and layering of the paper tags keeps it simple to make sure the photo gets the attention it deserves!
As always I start out my laying out a general concept of what / how I want my layout to be..
Then start attacking it with sprays and layering down the paper bits..
Lindy's Stamp Gang Steampunk Sepia & Clam Bake Beige were used here..
The long pieces of chipboard were inked with Versa Color Sand Beige while the smaller pieces in each corner which I wanted the eye to catch were coloured with VC Copper.
It was really quite relaxing when I was attaching the embellishments. I had a big sigh of relief as it all come together much better than even I had imagined.
I had made this page a week ago, but due to the school holidays I hadn't had the chance to upload and make a post until now. So glad that I'm finally sharing this as I'm totally in love with this now!
So what would you do?
