Crikey!!

For Lachlan's 5th birthday (almost 2 years ago) we took the kids to Australia Zoo. We left the farm at 4am (crazy I know, especially with a then 3 month old!) so that we could get there when the zoo opened. We met my parents and my sister there, who had travelled up from Brissy. The kids had a great day and this is probably my favourite photo from the day. This layout is for the Jan 15th sketch at Stuck?!. Here's the sketch:

And here is my layout:

I kept pretty much to the sketch and kept my layout fairly simple. I had had the LYB die cut paper for ages and was going to give it away coz I thought I'd never use it. But I pulled it out and chopped it up instead! :)

Thanks for stopping by...

  1. This looks great and perfect colours for Aust Zoo (how great is that place anyway?). Love your zig zag border bits, kind of like the crocs back/tail bits.
