This was a challenge from Ali Edward's new book to close your eyes and pull 6 scraps of Patterned Paper out of your scraps and cut it into squares and then take 3 pictures and cut them into squares and do a layout. You had to journal also. This was my take.

white Bazzill, Raven Bazzill, MM Phillidelphia Chip Board, MM black Paint, BG Wholy Cow Rub-On's, MM Gold Snaps, MM Brads and Photo Anchors, Junkitz, Chatterbox, Scenic Route, Basic Grey, Daisy D and I'm not sure what the pink and green paper is. May Arts Ribbon, CM Gold Pen

Journaling reads: Lightning was an old man of 10 when these were taken. What we didn't know at the time is that in less then 6 months we would lose him. That was 5 years ago and he is still deeply missed by the entire family.

When I opened my eyes and saw the pink and green paper I never dreamed I would be able to pull this off. But, I'm really happy with how it turned out.
