We would plan for weeks how we were going to dress, draw walls full of murals [on butcher paper] with witches and jack-o-lanterns and grave yards and have fun going to the school carnival and trick-or-treating on our street! Yet, somehow I can’t find even one Halloween photo of us together! So as you can see I just cropped and enlarged the photo [using picnik - above], found some clip-art witches hats and re-created my own memory.
Love the journal strips that quickly tell the story of our childhood Halloween fun [an idea from Stacy Julian a few years back-] – and I love the giant title that overlaps the photo. Note: her hat does go off the page a bit, but the rest is nice and straight to satisfy my ocd - despite how the photo looks - lol] I’ll be honest – this was WAY OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE – but now it’s one of my very favorite layouts – and it comes out year after year to be displayed during October.
What have you done outside your comfort zone?
I’d love to see it - post a link in the comments so I can take a look!

HA! The colors pink and lime green are outside of my comfort zone! Every time a class uses those colors, I have to improvise!
