Oh yeah, I remember this LO. I had a silky blue dance dress like that. Except mine was borrowed and a size to small. You can imagine how much my date liked that. I was busting out at the seems, literally. I can't believe my Mom let me out to a school dance in that thing.....LOL
great layout Ami and don't you just love our 80s hair dos?? Big hair was the thing. My kids make fun of my pictures. I tell them to shut up when they have kids, I have plenty of pictures and videos to show my grandkids LOL that is if they ever have any for me!!! I have grand dogs and grand cats
LOL....boy do I remember those times. Did I have a dress almost like this one? YES! and did my hair look somewhat like that....YEEEESSS!!!! OMG! You crack me up!!!!
oh ami... you are WAY too FUNNY! what a great lo, great dress and great hair!! the pp's are just wonderful, add some old fashion elements and you get a beautiful disaster all documented!!
I totally wore a dress the exact same color and fabric as the skirt on yours! This layout and your journalling crack me up...."Garden weasel hair"? lol And...way to go on including 7 different lines!! :)
great layout Ami and don't you just love the 80's!! Big hair and big shoulder pad shirts and dresses!! I love how you can use so many different pp and it still looks great!!
Girl we all have a picture like this! You should see my high school graduation pictures. I say pictures because I had it done 3 times! One for my mother, ack!, pink boa feathers and Big hair! I made her promise to burn it some day. I love your LO and I am going to lift it and do my picture. thanks for the idea.
This is funny. It's great to be able to laugh at ourselves, isn't it? Anyway, I think you looked cute. We were still just getting over the 80's in 1991, so I think you probably looked pretty stylish. (I will reserve my comments on the couch.) I have a bridesmaid dress that is similar to this and it's STILL in my closet! Really nice job on this layout!
OMG-your journaling is too funny! My older sister had that same sofa in her house in the early 90's(she lives in TX) & you are right, it is tacky on so many levels! Great job mixing up so many different CC lines!
This HAD to be in the 80s!!! My dd's often sported the same hair style!!! They cringe when they look at photos now. I just chuckle...they thought they were SOOOOO cool at the time!!! I love your journaling...a priceless layout!
Fun layout!!!! I love your journaling!!!!! Really gave me a smile this morning. And WOW! You should win just for using the most kinds of CC paper in one layout! LOL!!!
This is just wonderful on so many levels. I love the way you poke fun at yourself and the fashion of the day. And that couch. Oh my! Adore the title and journaling. What a terrific mix of Cosmo Cricket.
I love this layout. I think that couch adds so much. to the dress :-) I wonder why we never paid attention back then to our background. I am with Mindy, you are so brave.
LOVE IT!!! The LO, not the hair...LOL You are one brave soul. I'm just not ready to scrap the 'oh so wrong' hairstyles of my past (especially Jr High...shudder). OK, I think you are right. I NEED that Lime Twist glimmer mist. Must go shopping NOW!!!! LOL BTW, I wore a dress to my Jr High prom made of the same shiny blue material too...how funny is that?
LOL - this is fantastic - really made me chuckle!! Great page - love how you managed to get so many different lines of paper in - great job on the challenge!
This is me, just before my 8th grade dance in 1991. Which I didn't have a date for, by the way. I'm so cool.
Journaling: Wow...so many things wrong with this picture. The garden-weasel hair? Maybe it's that rustic country scene velour fabric on the couch. Wait--it's that lovely piece of runway couture I'm wearing! Wrongness on so many levels! - Me, 8th Grade Dance
This LO is for the August Cosmo Cricket Challenge--the challenge this month was to use at least 2 (or more) different Cosmo Cricket Collections. I used SEVEN! Dutch Girl, Girl Friday, Snorkel, Early Bird, Everafter, Hello Sunshine and Mr. Campy!
The only non-Cosmo things here are the title Thickers and the Accent Thickers (heart and scallops). And some Glimmer Mist (Lime Twist and Riptide), which I sprayed on the background paper before I put anything else on it.
