BACKGROUND NOISE <---Is that how you spell it? it looks WIERD! Wait! Now WIERD <----looks ODD!


This was for a challenge over at Cocoa to the Daisy...

Ok...
Ya know all those pictures that you WANT to scrap because they tell the story but they just aren't what you consider "perfect"?
The ones where you want this nice family snapshot around the campfire and in the background is a spilled bag of marshmallows, or a sippy cup, or your little brother who NEVER wants to be in the picture, beer bottles, the batch of burnt hot dogs...you get the picture...

I want you to SCRAP IT!

The Challenge is this:
Scrap a photo that has alot going on in the background. And point THOSE things out! They can totally bring back memories.

You can:
  • Cut up your scraps & create arrows to point them out
  • You could stamp a circle around them, number them & create a number key for them
  • Enlarge the picture and write directly on it & point things out
  • or do like I did and play I SPY!!

It seriously can get your memory going...like "OH MY GOD i forgot about that!)

So appreciate that annoying background!

If you take on this challenge...link me! let me see! its all about sharing.
PS:
SEND ME SOME MORE QUESTIONS...I am working on the ones sent to me...and there is totally enough time for more.
