captured moment

Oh, how I love this picture--I've had it just waiting for the right papers to come along.  And they FINALLY did in the story kit from Scrapbook Circle.

Funny thing about this picture it was TOTALLY spontaneous.  My kids were driving me CRAZY, it was hot and we went to the park to watch my nephew play flag football.  Anyway, I had, had enough of the fighting so I told them to RUN!  They started to run, and I turned and took this picture--carefree and full out!  So much so my youngest lost his shoe.  The only problem with this picture?  The large drain--that was holding me back from scrapping it as well.  So I decided to use the studio calico paper and cover it up.  I had a GREAT time layering up and playing.
A fun creative thing I did was to cut the papers and add them to a different colored cardstock underneath--wanna see?
I saved a bit of paper that I will use on another layout-no the square isn't straight but I'm okay with that because I covered it with my picture.
I have a few closeups:
 yes, I cut the title with my cameo--so totally fun!  this was my first layout using a large photo--I had a great time-I would SO totally do it again!
Thanks so much for the visit today--hope that you have a GREAT day!
