School has started here at our house and the girls are both loving their new classes. Lori is in 4th grade this year and Sara is in 6th, which around here means middle school! They are both having fun and were ready to go back so the world is a happy place!
On Monday I got to share a layout at Get It Scrapped featuring a Venn Diagram. If you are not sure what that is I’ll bet you will recognize it when you see it! We learn all about them in early grade school as a way to organize stories and ideas. Circles interlocking and overlapping showing how things interact.

I have told tidbits of how John and I met through several layouts over time and this seemed like a great opportunity to share a little more. I used acrylic paint and a cardboard ring to create my Venn Diagram and I love how loosey goosey it turned out and the fact that I could place it right on top of the photo as well was a bonus. I just realized that in the photo the vellum tags do not look the same as in real life. The big navy looking tag above the photo is actually a teal color that is similar in hue to the ring and both orange tags are considerably darker in the photo as well. Hmmmm… not sure why that got thrown off so much but oh well. I loved how the Creative Team explored different styles of diagrams and uses for them. Take a peek at all the inspiration HERE

In the mean time I am crazy busy trying to catch up on the house design team and Copic work and writing a few new classes and a few appointments I was holding off to do. It is all keeping me out of trouble that is for certain!
Happy Friday!
I think the layout is awesome, but I particularly love the subject matter! Thank you Michelle! You hit the nail–right on the head!
