Good morning ladies! Thank you for the beautiful layouts last week! Birgit was a great inspiration. This week, I am going to give you an option!
"Back in the old days" (LOL!) it was common to take small photos in a photobooth. These either came in small strips or just single small pictures. I have lots of these types of photos lying around and it's hard to figure out what to do with them because they are so small. The challenge this week is to use photobooth photos in a layout. You can even simulate a strip of photos if you have a series of photos of the same person by using creative cropping and lining up the pictures.
And here's the second option I promised: Use a teeny, tiny photo (or 2 or 10) on a layout. These pictures should be about 1-1.5 inches square.
I'll have some examples posted soon. Remember ... photos should be from the 1970's and before.

I do like these challenges, they make me think. I get to work incredibly hard digging pixels out of corners (the stamp) and I have to vary my usual style to fit in with the challenge.
The rain strip is from a sky photo I took when I visited the church from which I gathered the hinge for my growing collection of brushes.:cool:
Here is my effort:

Robyn, here is my layout for this challenge. I don't have any photobooth pics, so I made up one. Hope it works. Thanks for all your creative thinking in putting these challenges together. they are so much fun as well as challenging for me to do something different.

Jean - you must be reading my mind! I almost made this a photobooth/film strip challenge and I probably should have. Your layout is gorgeous!

In Sri Lanka, we never have had the photobooth system. Since I don’t have any photobooth stripes I took the tiny picture option. Thanks for giving a second option.
