Let's Scrap Design Team Challenge #152

This photo of #2 was taken during Wendy and Alex's wedding at Samford, Brisbane on 26March2011. He was having a whale of time prancing up and down the ranch before and after the outdoor wedding. Well it didn't quite look like a wedding layout as my main focus is kid #2.  With this, I decided to take on Charlotte's DT Challenge #152 at Let's Scrap. I used a Let's Scrap card sketch, flipped it clockwise and made this one photo page. The deal was to :
*    Use the event as a title
*    Rounded Corners
*    Circles or Ovals

 
Confession time : This is the 1st time I was using the trims from Webster's Page. I had wanted to add some trims and blings but I am kind of nervous after sticking these two strips onto my layout. So I stopped there. I guess I'm not the WP kind of person as I don't quite like the outcome :( Also it's my 1st time using Woodland Park collection (which I got from the OA Santa Sack sales last year) and used bits and pieces of the stuff on this layout.

Noteables : Bazzill White textured cardstock, Distress Stain Metallic Pewter, Distress Inks Spiced Marmalade/Evergreen Bough/Barn Door/Tumbled Glass, The Crafters Workshop Mini Life strips, Mister Huey's Bubble mask, Webster's Page trims, Bits and pieces from October Afternoon Woodland Park collection, Crop A Dile corner rounder
