PGAD Feb 25: Filmstrip Story Challenge

[norton94]

The Celebration Continues! Happy 18th SSD!

Hello Sweet Friends! Thanks for checking out today's scrap challenge. I hope you find it a fun twist of inspiration for your story telling, or maybe you already do this?

I was inspired by an awesomely eye-catching birthday page in the Sweet Shoppe gallery by Lisa (kelseyll). I particularly love how she used the block frame strip as a space to narrate and to tell the story. It reminded me of filmstrips or the little flip books. Her photos told the story, but with just a few extra words the personality and backstory was there too. So brilliant!!

THE CHALLENGE:
For this scrap challenge,

• show a progression of events (aka a story) this can be a little daily happening or a grand life story - totally up to you!

• use 4+ different photos

• use a storyboard or filmstrip motif

• include a few extra words *if you want* for narration and personality

• Submit your layout and Sweet Shoppe gallery link below by February 27th @ midnight EST

ADDITIONAL INSPIRATION:
Here is my page using Lisa's inspiring storytelling technique.

Here is a closer look showing how I used narration...

Products used:
That's Life by Erica Zane
Monsterrific-Alpha Pack by Meghan Mullens
CONTACT SHEETS V.2 | PHOTO PROOFS by The Nifty Pixel

If you struggle getting started, there are many products in the Shoppe to stir your creativity - look at templates, frames, and film strips. Here is just a small sampling...

THE PRIZE:
If you submit your layout by the deadline you'll receive this terrific part of A Hole Year Older - Cindy Schneider's Birthday Strips!

REMEMBER
Each day's freebie is only available for a limited time. Be sure to watch the deadlines posted in each thread so you don't miss any of these sweet treats!

And ... if you're playing along to Win Your Wishlist by completing all 29 challenges, you'll complete this anytime prior to the final deadline on March 3rd @ Midnight ET.

Thank YOU for being part of our SSD community, because without you all we would not be able to celebrating 18 yrs!

Again, kudos to you Lisa for the challenge inspo!

Thanks for the fun challenge.
Here's my page of our very eventful travel day...

The journaling is pretty small, so here it is:
1. Waiting at the airport.
2. Getting on the plane.
3. All masked up!
4. Waiting to leave.
5. Two hours later: still at the airport!
6. Transfer by bus.
7. Our new plane.
8. Finally leaving!
9. Yeah! In the sky!
10. Almost there.
11. Arrived! Waiting for the rental car.
