My take:

This is my first attempt at taking up a scrapbooking challenge. I’ve been wondering what it’s like to create a scrapbook layout based on a theme/topic - and, on a deadline.

And, when I found out about this cool blog/community called One Little Word, I immediately subscribed and watched how it all worked. They basically post one word every week, as a prompt to create themed scrapbooking layouts (or mini books, home items, etc). Pretty much similar to what I do with this blog’s Mini Creativity Workshops prompts.

Anyway, after a few weeks of subscribing, I realised that it’s no fun if I just keep reading and watching everyone else create layouts. So, when they posted this week’s word, DELIGHT, I knew I had to take up the challenge. I love the word ‘Delight’ and it just stuck.

I thought of a few ways to approach the challenge. And, in the end I decided to catch up on creating more scrapbook layouts for my kids. Since I haven’t done a 12 x 12 layout in a while. So, here it is.

I had fun. I learned a few things doing this (like how I can print my photos MUCH better in my home printer!)… and it was all good. Definitely happy I did the challenge.
