LOAD Day 6

Day 6

 

Inspiration : Red Herring

 

[The background story]

When I watched the video and got the prompt for today, I was completely stumped. I thought about it all day long and decided to use the red from the prompt as a main color on my page. I'm not a huge fan of red so it was a little challenging for me, but since there's so much green in my photos, I actually think it works.

 

Also, it's VERY unlike me to have crooked journaling, but it's straight on the lines of the patterned paper and I purposely put it on an angle to match the photos, so I'll have to live with it.

 

Journaling reads:

 

"I'm a crafty person so when I was in LOWES & passed by all the pretty flowers & plants, I couldn't help but think, "well that could be fun". With some guidance from the parental unit, I loaded a cart full of colorful goodness & added 2 new chairs to the mix. I've got a couple strawberry plants in cinder blocks, some green & red peppers, jalepenos & seranos for Jon & a little cilantro...plus a bunch of colorful plants. An afternoon of soil & sun & I'm on my way! 6 May 2013"
