NEW (sneaks) Scrapbook Page



I know, they are bright! My little sweetie loves colors like this.

She is crazy I think.

I want new sneakers myself, but I will be skipping over these two colors when I buy myself a new pair!

Of course, we're doing some back to school shopping.

Posting this for TWO challenges. The first one up, Bird is the Word I haven't played along with for a very long time. Challenges are the first thing to go when I get crunched for time. ;-(

They are asking you to use the word PEACE. I don't find these sneakers very peaceful, but it certainly KEEPS the peace by buying her the ones she likes. She wears a size 9 in woman's so it's quite expensive, but they are very comfortable, so yet again keeping the peace, LOL!

Here is a close up of some journaling where I used the word PEACE. I think this page reminds me of her hippy chick side! Cool colors, etc!

Coolie little birdie to help me illustrate too, thanks Alison, the hippy chick with the marble toes!


The second challenge I'm entering this in is one to use office supplies at Our Creative Corner. You WERE supposed to use the color red...and I snuck in as much as possible....but mostly, just wanted to play along with the Kim Price Challenge, LOL!!!

Did she hear that purple is the new red? There may not be a lick of red on this page...I did use two paper clips and also some staples, which fought me. I must have taken them out eighteen times, which is what normally happens to me when I am trying to use a stapler at work...weird. Although, we never had hot pink staples anywhere I have ever worked....

Have a couple of shout outs here on supplies.

Those super cool little house chippies are sold by Channa. The big huge purple button?? Purple Pumpkin I THINK.

AND, the sneaker wearin' Hippy Chick colored those chippy houses herself! I spritzed with a bit of white paint to get the ink to run and make them look tie dye-ish!

Wish me luck, I'm heading into the back to school whirl wind....Oh and Happy Friday!

  8. I love that huge graphic (stamp or stencil?) in the background and the little houses are just too cute. And the new sneakers, while they wouldn't be my choice personally, I love green and purple together and I think they are extremely cool for your DD! Awesome layout Mitra and I also see some Funkie Junkie lace. Would love to have you link up to Sunday Share over at Frilly and Funkie. You just might be a winner of a 25% off coupon to The Funkie Junkie Boutique.

    Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful page with us this week at Our Creative Corner!

  10. Ever watch the series Weeds? I love that song, "Little Houses" and I immediately started singing it when I saw them. I wonder how many of those little houses have kids wearing neon shoes? I did just learn from a friend that they don't call them neon anymore..it's Safety Purple and Green. How odd!
    So glad you linked up at OCC to support Kim's challenge. The crinckled corner with staples is perfect and the rainbow colored rosette is perfect to accent the shoes. I looooove that purple is the new red. ;)
    Hey, come to think of it, didn't milkshake girl have some "safety" shoes on too?? LOL

  11. Gorgeous page. I don't want to upset you but they are my daughters fave colours too and she is in her 44th yr. She still dresses in vivid stripes or bold colours!! She also just bought a pair of trainers with lime laces.

  13. Wow - the purple/green color combo is a real knock out - and I love it! The oversized doilie pattern, mixed with tiny wooden houses, add so much interest to this layout. TFS!
