OOPS!!!

Have you ever had a BIG oops? When I received the first 3 months of challenges I was so excited. I read the first two assignments for January and promply printed the assignments. I am a visual learner and have difficulty if it's not in print. Old school I guess. Well here comes the oops...my printer was low on colored ink (I was not aware of this). It printed everything in black leaving out the red numbers for the page patterns. Wow does that change everything!

So I feverishly went to work on assignment #3 at our annual January Pajama Crop. I've been waiting for about a year to find the perfect way to use pictures of Brayden. Thought I could pick page patterns? I used two patterns: page one is #19 checker inset border and page two is pattern #53 Inspired by Windmill. I was very pleased with the outcome.

After seeing last weeks emails I was left with some questions. I emailed Tami and her response had me perplexed. So I went back and reprinted the assignments...guess what the page pattern numbers were listed!

All makes sense now! Oops...now I need to start over! I will post the pages titled "All Boy" as an extra story and a good lesson learned :)

Thanks for listening and will post assignment #3 soon. Julie

Your photos tell it all, and I love the black accent. This is great.

These photos remind of of many undocumented events in the lives of my children...okay...maybe one more than the rest...sure wish I had photos to tell the story! This is great! The paper tiles with marker are wonderful!

LOVE the photos of your little guy and the chocolate syrup! Also love how you used the red marker on the PaperTiles - like the red marker used on his arm & knee. Thanks for sharing your oops! :)

funny story, but these pages are great, too!

Believe it or not Julie, I also had to redo this month's assignment! Not that I used the wrong page pattern, but I had altered it and Tami's memo said we should not alter the page patterns, so back to the drawing board! You did a great job on this, though - great topic - can't lose with kid photos!!

Very funny story, looking forward to your pages!

I still want to see you other two pages, too!

That sounds like something that I would do. :)

I guess the red ink would make a big difference! Sorry you didn't get all the information the first time. We will look forward to seeing all the pages you've created. Hope this didn't create too much of a problem for you. :)
