Paddington Bear Goes to School

I've posted a challenge over on the Memorable Seasons Forum and I'd love to have you play along.  I'm going a bit easy on the challenge because my LSS challenge, which I'm posting on Friday, is a bit more involved. The challenge I've posted in the forum is two-fold: 1. Wrap at least one word in your title (or subtitle) onto two lines and 2. journal around your photo(s). Here's what I created for my challenge...

Supplies from Memorable Seasons online store: Simple Stories Summer Fresh collection.

I knew I wanted to focus the challenge on journaling around the photos but what I didn't plan out ahead of time was that I would want to add a sub-title. So my lack of planning became part of the challenge. I had to figure out how to squeeze my sub-title in that little journaling card so what did I do? I broke the word up to fit in the space. When I look at it I see CHARACTER DAY but I know others may read it as CHAR ACTER DAY and I'm fine with that. I may go back and add a hyphen but I'm undecided on that still.

The ladies over at Memorable Seasons are so fun and nice. And they have an great sale going on over there right now.  I hope you'll stop by and introduce yourself and play along with my challenge for a chance to win scrappy goodies!

I love that polkadot paper and the stitching around some of the dots! And I totally think the itty bitty bit of chevron on the left makes the page!
