All About the Hat

This layout was one that I actually had half-planned in my head before our honeymoon was over. I had the title and photos in mind, because I thought they were cute and kitchy.

What happened...is I burned my scalp at Disney World. Come on, I'm a pastey blond programmer. I don't get sun. I was wearing my hair in a pony tail day after day, and my scalp burnt at the demarcation between my bangs and my pulled-back hair. Owie. And this was the end of DAY 2. So as we were leaving the Magic Kingdom that evening, we stopped in at the hat store on Main Street, and hubby bought me my first baseball cap. I don't wear hats, so he had to adjust it for me. He got himself a new had too. I snapped a picture of us while waiting for the bus back to the resort.

The saying on my hat, says "Mood subject to change without notice." And it shows a picture of a grumpy Tinkerbell. The saying...is me to a T.

Design-wise, I picked up the layout from the Scrapbooks ETC. magazine Pagemaps edition. I used alot of bright apple-greens to play to the green of Tinkerbell's dress, as well as the green of half the text on the hat. I loved that I was able to find a Tinkerbell embellishment that pretty well matched the grumpy Tinkerbell on the hat itself.

Supplies: Oi...cardstock is DCWV, but I don't know what any of the other items are. This was done along time ago, so I don't have the rest of the supply packaging to even look at.

And just so you know....Hubby is still teasing me about wearing the hat. Not that I burnt my scalp. No, he thinks it's funny that the hat was so low on my brow...because of my pony tail. The rest of the trip, the hat keeps sitting farther and farther back on my head, as I put my pony tail a little lower each day. Like I said before...I don't wear hats!
