Hello Simple Stories friends! Emily Pitts here today with a layout I made about my daughter. You might think, a layout about a girl, oh I'll pull out my Fabulous collection from Simple Stories! While I do pull that collection out a lot, I knew it wouldn't work for the topic of my layout.
But Awesome, with its guitars, car tracks, and wings, well that was what I was looking for! See, I'd had this conversation with my 17 year old daughter, all stemming for a typical thing teenage girls do in the car, sing along to the lyrics. Especially the lyrics by cute boy bands! But Annie hasn't really gotten into these bands, she has a few of their songs, but she's more into acapella and jazz. So this conversation happened, I loved her take on things so much, I tweeted it, and this layout is the result. I love that I could use Awesome on a girl page!
I think the guitar and wings are perfect to represent the boy band theme. And the car track? My own cheeky humor showing up to represent the moving on in her statement. I love that the stripe of blue in the alphabet matches her shirt so well. Then there were the Scrabble type letters B-O-Y, perfect for my title. It's fun to break the "rules" sometimes!
Have a great weekend and rememeber, it's OK to switch things up, to not go with the flow all the time.

Very cute!! Your daughter is beautiful! I could see using this collection for my daughter too! She is a little bit girly, but I think she is the only 2nd grader that has a backpack with skulls all over it.
