Recently I was invited to a 40th birthday where the theme was Activewear. It instantly made me think of Kath and Kel from the Australian TV show Kath and Kim, where the couple get fit and healthy together in their activewear. I knew I had to recreate this look and so off we went to the party dressed up as this couple.
I scrapbooked my two favourite photos of us from the evening- the "look at me" is one of Kath's sayings and I embraced her whole character, even copying her walk and holding handweights.
I used bright colours as well, since our outfits were pretty colourful!
This layout used lots of retired bits and pieces that I had been stockpiling, as I am definitely trying to shrink my craft stash (so that I can buy new craft things of course!) and I found the glitter stickers and a glitter heart in the perfect colours to complement the bright pink.
I was inspired by this sketch at Sketches In Thyme.
I also created some elements based on this mood board over at the Color Dare challenge. I used hearts, the colours and the little birdie sticker to create the vibe of this mood board in my layout. Even my washi tape strips have little hearts on them!
Thanks so much for stopping by my blog- I hope to see you again!
