Focus On | Outside Your Window

Happy Monday Lily Bee friends! Summer here with this weeks focus on subject: Outside Your Window. Today my fellow design team member Patricia will be joining me as we explore the world outside our window.

I am a bit of a literal scrapbooker and I found I was originally stumped by this challenge. My first thought was outside my window is my AC unit. I decided to let the idea simmer. When I looked again at what was really outside my window I grabbed my camera and took a great shot of one lone blooming azeala in my backyard. This was the layout I was inspired to create.

Lily Bee Suplies Used: Destination (Patterned Paper-Bon Voyage), Pinwheel (Patterned Paper-Jump Rope, Flower Box and Lemonade Stand, Chipboad Stickers & Chit Chat Stickers) and Stationary (Patterned Paper-Grape)

Patricia decided to use a photo she took out her car window. Once she decided on her photo, a flood of thoughts and memories came to mind. She used the label stickers to type out all her random memories and thoughts she had when looking out onto the lake crossing the bridge. She clustered the memories in one section, and then another of the current day happenings, thoughts, and hopes in another section. She pop dotted some of the labels, and added a star-burst and clouds to layer under the photo. The photo was taken at about 4:30-5 a.m. and the sun was just starting to come up over the lake.
