Scrapbook Satur…um, Thursday
Alphanumeric Blog Hop
I thought I was too late to sign up for it because I was a couple days behind on reading Mel’s blog, but then she contacted me and asked if I could do a post about punctuation. Punctuation? Yes. Punctuation. or perhaps I mean: Yes…punctuation. The first response is clear cut. Yes. It is about punctuation. The second is slightly less certain. Yeeessss. I suppose it is about punctuation, of all things. It’s kinda rambly & disjointed but still, you must admit punctuation is the focus. Punctuation is very important when communicating on line – we have no sarcasm font or snarky response font – so punctuation helps fill in the gap. At least for me. I use ellipses … all the time. Sometimes they mean “and yes, here is the punch line” or “here is the sarcastic bit”. Usually they just express a general dubiousness about the whole thing, such as in my example, which is in line with their accepted use to suggest faltering or fragmented speech accompanied by confusion, ...
Love these! In the first one, love the hair, love the journaling, love the layout! Okay, so I love it all. I also really like "sweet." Nice to see flowers and bright colors on a boy page. Finally, the 11 things layout if very eye-catching; the design highlights everything in a pleasing way.

Wow these are amazing
ReplyDeleteGreat pages love the "Sweet" page - great journalling and a fab title - want to try that (text within text) sometime. The 11 things is fun too - though by the looks of your journalling it may not be working as a project - funky page design though!
ReplyDeleteIs it wrong I was disappointed that the blue arrow hair wasn't used for the professional photo?
ReplyDeleteLove your layouts here! Lots of great variety and pretty colours :) I especially like the layout design of the first one!
ReplyDeleteGreat LOs!...Love how you've done the 'SWEET' title..and the concept of the '11 Things'

Oh, brilliant :) I love the 11 things idea for a layout, but they're all great!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I really have to strain my ingenuity with girly kits from designers I CT for.

ReplyDeleteWe held off on the blue hair specifically so we'd miss the professional photos
ReplyDeleteThank you! I love paper blocking but getting it all to match up frustrates me.
ReplyDeleteIt was for a challenge where they wanted you to use arrows pointing to things in a numbered list & I thought it went well with a recent post topic
