Layout Challenge 12-6 thru 12-28: Congrats Pollyannamom!

[kwitcherkicken99]

Okay everyone... this challenge is a little different from the norm (because I've loved the unconventional challenges of late!)

This challenge is a DO-OVER!

That's right... you are to do-over a page that you have previously created, but in hindsight, secretly (or not so secretly) don't like!

Mine is a page that I did from a mini-baby shower that my coworkers and students threw for me just before DD was born. I don't know if I was having a bad scrap day, or just not feeling it, but it is just bad!

RULES: You may relocate your images on the page (you know to use dental floss to minimize damage to the paper, right?). You may cover part of the background page with additional paper. You may remount any border paper you have used on your images.

This is a redo, but try to keep some of the original parts of the page.

New embellishments, additions of journaling boxes, etc are all allowed too!

PLEASE POST AN IMAGE OF THE ORIGINAL PAGE AND ALSO THE REDONE PAGE!

I'll get my original up today and have my full example hopefully up tomorrow. Nothing is on the calendar, but I never know what will pop up!

P.S. - I ran the challenge just over three weeks, to land in between the holidays, hopefully it's not to chaotic of a season for everyone!

Here it is! My least favorite page!

The original picture is not showing up.

 

[kwitcherkicken99]

That was officially weird! But I think I got it fixed now.

 

[kwitcherkicken99]

Shameless bump!!!

Where is everyone??? ​

Or do I need to come at you with more photo cutting in half??

This is a really good idea, but, I'm not gonna play because I'm not so fond of a lot of my early scrapping and if I start re-doing pages, I'll re-do whole albums! I need to catch up on my current stuff and look back fondly at where I started. Kudos to those of you who can re-do a page, I just can't

 

[jacksmomma]

Great re-do of the page!

I am going to sit this challenge out. I have too much current stuff to work on.

 

[kwitcherkicken99]

I figured this one would be tough with the holidays!

BTW... ITA with wanting to redo some others... this one was just REALLY bad. I almost pulled it from Bug's book altogether! There is a spread I did from Chuck E Cheese that may get the axe too... :

Shameless BUMP!!!!

Can I enter the "Fix my Layout" I posted here a long time ago? I was having trouble arranging a page, and came to the DIS for help. This was how it started out:

This was the new, improved version:

I have a question on this challenge...I have re-done a picture. Meaning I printed it one way, then used some different editing software and greatly improved the photo. All of this was done before I scrapped the picture. Will this count for the challenge?

I have copies of the new and old photo. I will post them tomorrow.

 

[kwitcherkicken99]

Jacksmomma - of course! I can empathize with redoing some photo work myself. Sometimes the image just doesn't sit well.. that's a legal modification!

Sorry I've been MIA... this last week has kicked my booty!

I like the change up! I think it bodes well for your images! Thanks for the entry!

I was wondering where you were! I thought you were buried in the snow. Glad you are okay, and just busy.

Thanks. After I took the picture, I added the kids "signatures" in chalk on the title strip - ending at the tip of the pencil in the corner.

 

[kwitcherkicken99]

Okay well... I would have liked to have done this earlier today but I've had a couple of sickies in the house!

Congrats Pollyannamom! Can't wait to see the next challenge!

 

[jacksmomma]

Congrats! I know it is too late, but I hope to post my LO with my re-done picture sometime today.

I know this is late, but I wanted to share what I did for this challenge. Instead of re-doing the page, I re-did the photo. My sister introduced me to a really cool photo editing site that is great!

So here are the photos...originally I had it printed in sepia, but it seemed a little flat to me. So my sister jazzed it up by leaving a few points color, zooming, making the background black and white, and smoking the edges. I love the look of it now!

And finally, here is the page...
