July Clique Kits Blog Hop

This month's theme for Clique Kit is Captured on Film. They wanted us to use filmstrips, viewfinders or Polaroids.Well I didn't use any of those. I know rebel, instead I used my embellishments in rows like a filmstrip and the photos are a memory that I don't want to forget; we surprised the kids to a trip to Knott's Berry Farm for their birthdays.










My First layout this month is of my daughter. I was able to get a nice close-up of my daughter and wanted to "girl-up" the layout, mostly because she's not into pink and flowers anymore, but she was then. I used the buttons from the kit on the side to mimic a filmstrip.   

In this layout I wanted to show the kids and of course Snoopy. The embellishments are again in rows like a filmstrip framing my pictures.  

As I was looking through my pictures I realized they all had a theme. My kids had their hands up for every ride, how could I not put that in a layout. So for this layout each picture the kids have their hands up high. I kept the layout simple. I added the wood "gears" to symbolize the gears of a ride, and of course I had to add 2 tickets for these crazy riders.   My last layout is the kids at the end of the day. The kids and I love water and what's better than taking a fountain photo, Oh I know taking a fountain photo while in the fountain. I couldn't believe how perfectly the paper and the water and the stripes from the awning matched.

 Since the theme this month is Captured on Film I thought I'd make an cover for my iphone after all it is the camera I have on me at all times.

Well I couldn't go to bed without doing my last pictures of Knott's Berry Farm. Here are the kids at the Liberty Bell.  I turned the paper City Scape upside down; I love the paper but didn't want  the city to show. It was an easy fix to my problem.

I hope you all enjoyed my layouts and little craft. Make sure to check out the other ladies in the blog hop, comment on all the blogs for your chance of a great prize from Clique Kit.

Today's the start of me driving to and from the high school 3 times a day. I start the day by getting Juliet to summer school by 7:15 and then I'm back with Jonathan at 11 for wrestling practice. Now comes the lucky part. Both kids are in wrestling, so I don't have to go back up to the school til 4.
