A bit of a challenge

I set a challenge on a group and it has taken me all month to complete it!  Part of my problem was choosing what photos to take, the challenge was to take 4 photos that could sum up a typical day  and then follow a template.   I finally settled on four photos,  one of porridge, which I have for breakfast, most days include crafting, so took pic of my messy craft table,  and I chat to friends using skype,  and I do like a nice glass of red... 
Took me ages to settle on a colour scheme,  tried pink first, but that didn't work,  finally chose green, then didn't like the photos,  so matted them with pink and green card,  that seemed to lift them,  did the lettering with The Slice,  and added some gromlets using the Big Bite, green and brown.  

Here's the template if you want to have a go. 

Materials:
  • Collosal colour card pack, PM
  • DCWV patterned paper
  • Gromlets
  • Plain cream paper from my stash
Tools
  • The Slice
  • Big Bite
  • Photo glue
  • Craft knife, ruler, eraser, paper trimmer


Think I got the cream paper (used for lettering) from papershop,  many moons ago.   Forgotten I had the box of paper, and how mad I'd gone picking colours, will be very handy for the lettering.  

Do remember that all the templates can be downloaded,   I am thinking of using PDF files as well.  Have fun, and happy scrapping.
