I love geocaching and recently managed to add a couple of Scandinavian holiday finds to my tally of caches. No holiday photos are printed yet, so I decided to use my August Counterfeit Kit for a layout with a hidden photo and some extra hidden journalling. (Apologies for the crummy photos ... Child No.3 took MY camera on HER holiday and I'm struggling with the one she left behind)
On the face of it a layout of 13 ladies celebrating the second anniversary of our scrapbook crop back in April.
Very prim and proper.
Except that prim and proper is so boring ... which meant we had to include a "silly" photo that was much more typical:
And if you flip the photo over there's some journalling as well as a list of everyone's names (given that I made a mistake writing them out when I made the page ... I will certainly be grateful for it in a few years once even more of my little grey cells have gone!).
If you've missed anyone on the CKCBMBH you can find the full list over on the Counterfeit Kit Challenge Blog - why not join in yourself next month?!
I've just returned from a craft camp where we had a silly photo .This has inspired me to scrap it.
ReplyDeleteI like the layout and will have to try this .
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean by being grateful for having written down those names! Lovely page and I'm always a fan of hidden journaling.
ReplyDeleteOh how clever to hide both picture and journaling. Very eyecatching page.
ReplyDeleteTotally clever to include the corresponding info on the reverse of the hidden photo! I don't always want all of that on my page, but like you I worry about them all being "strangers" sometime in the distant (I hope!) future. GREAT way to include it, and the silly photo is adorable :~D
ReplyDeletegreat idea!
ReplyDeleteOh I just love this!!! I may have to "lift" this =) I have so many silly pics from my son in high school. We would take serious pics like for Prom and then they'd ham it up. Such a great idea to tuck it behind the "normal" pic and write the journaling on the back. LOVE THIS!!
ReplyDeleteBlessings ~~ dawn
Oh I love this page Gemma. Such fun photos too.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant Jemma, I just love those photos ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat page :)
Love this! Great way to add an extra photo + journaling.
ReplyDeleteI love the tabs you made to pull out the photo with. nice job and funny to hide the silly one!
ReplyDeleteI do like your tabs :). And hiding the additional photo too is a neat idea (and a face-saving one for those in it!).
ReplyDeleteI think fun gatherings should always include silly/silly face photos!
ReplyDeleteI agree, serious photos have their place but silly ones are so much more fun. Great idea to journal on the back.
ReplyDeleteGreat LO and perfect for the challenge!
ReplyDeleteLiking the hidden silly photo and you spelt my name right! LOL
