July 2016 Pet Challenge
Pet Challenge – July 2016
“A little birdie told me”. . . that “a dog is a man’s best friend”.  I’m not sure, but a “Leopard cannot change his spots.”
Well I’m telling you (not the little birdie) that “Your best friend” this month is going to be a quote/saying.
You can use ANY photos you like – no animals necessary – but I will give you an extra entry if there are animal(s) in your photo(s) – but you must use a saying about animals.    You can google “Animal Sayings” and you’ll find a lot of them.  Make this influence or be your TITLE this month. 
Here’s a link to get you started. . . http://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/animal-phrases.html
I’m sure your layout will make us as “happy as a clam”!! 
And for those of you that “flock like a moth to a flame” where sketches are concerned – here’s this month’s sketch – use it or not – your choice as always.  I love the layering and the two different orientations of the photos.
Image
 

And I’ll pull a name for a $5 ACOT gift card after this closes at 11:59 July 31st.  Because after all, “no one looks a gift horse in the mouth”.

Here's my page!  I used the animal phrase "Birds Eye View", which was a perfect title for my daughter's hike up a very high peak in CA.  I used some birds for the word 'birds' in the title!
I have no pets, so none in my photos.

I'm loving the birds on the curved arrow - I have so many ducks/geese photos from living on the lake that I am definitely stealing that idea!  And what a great idea for the quote!  Love it - all of it!!!  Thanks for playing along!

I did the title of "MOUSIN' AROUND'! I also combined this with the Disney Challenge! Hopefully my Disney Characters still count as using 'Animals' in the twist of this challenge ;)

Of course they count!!  Mickey Mouse is a Mouse, Donald Duck is a Duck, Goofy is a dog, Pluto is a dog. . . etc. . . . .  lol
I love how well you placed the four different orientation photos on the page, it works well with the vertical and horizontal to the title!! Thanks for doing the challenge!

Aww thank you So Much! Funny thing is..this is the fastest layout I've put together! I am having vision issues and the color yellow, esp patterns really causes me to get blurry vision and feel very sea sick (don't worry going in for more test to find out why)...but I LOVED that paper with those pictures...so I kept covering it up, placing, covering up, then begged my dad to come in and do the title work b/c I couldn't look at the pages. Found some simple stickers and threw them on!! I was shocked how well it turned out!! lmao
