Workplace Shenanigans

Our grown-up son has almost disappeared from my scrapbooks, so when he showed me a series of photos that he took at work, I was keen to get copies and scrapbook them. He was originally trying to take a new photo for his security pass when one of his colleagues photobombed him and silliness ensued. 

I printed six photos and used Sketch #192 from Sketch-n-Scrap for my page. This one has four portrait photos, but it wasn't too much bother to adapt it for six landscape photos instead, although it meant moving my title down below the photos.

I started out from the 'One of a Kind' paper on the left, a scrap that I've been wanting to use up, and based the rest of my paper choices around it. Most of them are fairly old, and hard to match with more modern embellishments, so I went with simple punched shapes and gold glitter tape. I also added staples and brads for the 'Pin the Tail on the Donkey' challenge from our birthday cybercrop over at For the Love of Pretty Paper, a challenge to use embellishments that fix things together (though I've swapped the tiny blue brads for larger brown ones since taking this photo).

  5. Isn't it so funny how our kids fill our scrapbooks and then slowly fade out when they grow up and out of the house. I love it when my older ones give me a reason to put them in my books. I love how your page turned out! Thank you for playing along with us at Sketch N Scrap!
