Storm Chasers


I used one of my favorite techniques on this layout...the paperbag. I love having a pocket to "hide" other photos and such in. This time I made it part of the "tornado" on the layout. My 6 year old has been obsessed with tornadoes ever since we started our weather study. His Nana got both of the boys a tornado maker and the first episode of Storm Chasers. The boys had so much fun creating their own "weather curriculum" by video taping themselves giving lectures on weather. My husband helped them put it on a DVD and even made a case and a label for it. I'm planning to put a copy of it in the paper bag. In a pocket on the back of the layout, I'm going to put the "textbook" they made to go along with the DVD. Oh yeah, I almost forgot. I let Weston made the dust cloud at the bottom of the tornado. That was one of the things I remember most from the DVD they made - Weston's tornado drawings. : )


I used a plain piece of brown card stock for the background. At the bottom of the paper bag I used a triangle stamp from Stampin' Up to form the bottom of the tornado. The title was made with alphabet stamps from Hobby Lobby. I used a stapler to adhere the pic to the paper bag.
