Scrappy Kathy | Excited to be Here! || It's 5 O'Clock Somewhere on Scrap Backwards Tuesday @scrappykathy | Uploaded August 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
I went backwards from the sketch (an August subscription sketch from ScrapaSketch.com) and cut papers from the paper pad in my kit, selected floral ephemera and fussycuts that I thought wouldn't clash with the floral block from the pad and I added the border punching and texture paste and wood to meet Summer Challenge rules -- THEN I decided the colors and florals, while not strictly tropical, could be MADE to look tropical by adding a few bits here and there, and that would make the page perfect for the pics we took at the Coral Reefer Band concert last Friday. I originally planned to mat all the little photos and use them on the floral background and then I found the title piece and it took the place of two of the pics AND it needed a white background.....SOOOOO it led me to what you saw in the beginning of the video.
I included the clock which doesn't read 5 but it's 5 somewhere, right? I included the radio because that's where we all first heard Margritaville and the flip flop is a nod to that song as well. And I'm pretty sure someone in the band has a guitar shaped like this one and if they don't, they should get one!
This was a fun page, fond memory, wonderful sound track to have had for my life with John and to all I say "Bubbles Up"!
