Please pardon the blurring here – I usually blur non-family members' kids & last names if I haven't discussed posting with them first, & this LO has both others' kids AND their last name. But I think you can get the basic gist of this LO without seeing those (though I wish I could share how CUTE all these kids are!). And as usual, my scan crops off the edges; there's more side margin IRL.
This is from when our friends & their kids visited us in New York City from upstate New York; they met DH at our apartment then once I got home from work we all went to their relative's birthday party in our area. The actual title is “____ (friends' last name) in Washy” (that's what DH & I call our neighborhood of Washington Heights); the friends' last name appears vertically on the left side but it's blurred out here.
This is my response to twinstars/Jen's Rotated Monochromatic Scraplift Challenge for Scrap Happenzz Critique Group. We had to rotate an existing LO 90 degrees then scraplift it using a monochromatic color scheme. I turned Makkrb's fantastic “Tokyo” LO http://www.scrapbook.com/myplace/index.php?mod=galleries&u=41507&m=view&id=2280655&page=1&f=1 counter-clockwise then lifted it. I was gonna borrow Brenda's choice to go monotone for this challenge & use blacks & whatnot, as she did in her way cool “Black Chrome” response, but to my pleasant surprise I found enough pleasing blues in my stash to keep this monochromatic. I DID use black ink though.
Journaling: “Aug 25, 2006 – The __[friends' last name]___ (Rob, Julie, Luc & Belle) visited from Westchester! They chilled w/ Greg at #25 then I met them all at Ft. Tryon Park for Yared's 1st birthday party [I think Mahlet's (Yared's Mom) sister is married to Rob's brother in Switzerland; Zig is Yared's Dad]. An excellent time! A clarinetist & guitarist played Woody Allen movie-esque music. Read ‘That's Not My Dragon' w/ Luc. Belle & Luc ran around all over the place, w/ Rob & Julie chasing (lil Belle knocked over a whole bunch of watermelon slices!). I practiced carrying a stroller down stair steps. Delicious fruit shortcake from Veniero's. It was a bit chilly but a really nice party!”
The K&Co/Amy Butler pp was a gifty from Brenda – thanks Babe! And thanks to Jen for an awesome challenge, I had a blast doing this!
TFL :)
