Doin’ it for kicks, rockin’ and rollin’ with week six!
Aaah Orange. How I have missed you. (lucky there’s some in the Seafoam Kit!)
A note for those that would see it right away. The “W” in week on this here little card is actually an upside down “M”. The actual W would not fit and really I don’t mind it this way anyway.
Left side right here. On this page I loved playing with the flares on the bling picture. Close up they look really cool and sometimes you just need a little extra sparkle but, by far my favourite spot on this page is the little “smile” card. So very simple and sometimes I just need that little reminder.
Here’s what I really love about it.
- 1 x journal card
- 1 x small piece of washi
- 2 x brackets from Thickers used on title card
Simple in message, look AND execution. Wish it was always like this and has made me think even more about how to keep it simple.
Here is the Right hand side of the week. I used my little remote for that dinner table shot and I must say it is the best $5 I have spent in a long time! Why didn’t I buy this ages ago? How did I ever live without it? … Yes indeed I am getting in FRONT of that camera.
I also thought I’d add a little interactive feature this week too with the little orange envelope. It slides right out and inside are some of the fortune cookie messages form our Chinese New Year celebration dinner. You never know years down the track they may even make some good sense.
Finally here it is all together as it sits in my album. This week brought to you by the colour Orange and the number 6!
Thanks For Dropping In

I have to say, I’m not a fan of the orange in the Seafoam but you make it work. Looks great. Would love to hear more about your $5 remote. Seriously, where did you get that??
Hi Kelly,
As I was reading your comment I almost thought you were going to say my pages confirm our feelings about the orange! LOL. I love the colours together but am also finding them really versatile if you single them out. So you will notice I have a few weeks coming up where I do this with a colour from the Seafoam.
My little remote I bought from e-bay. $5 from HK. A bargain and a total gem. You can see it on the RHS of my week 4 layout.
Thanks For Dropping In

Love the sick bay notice…. All the little things make it so special. Again you’ve made magic. Love it.
Hi Tina,
It was Mackenzie’s very first. How could I not include it? Thank you for your lovely comment.
Thanks For Dropping In
Petra
Love all the little, simple things
am waiting on my remote…….
Hey Kristie,
Yes simple is good. I think I have started something with the little remote.
Thanks Fro Dropping In

Fun to see the everyday disasters like spilt milk. Great to see your pages Petra.
Thank you. Yes I especially enjoy putting those in because they disappear from memories almost overnight!
Thanks For Dripping In

And yet again you’ve produced another beautiful week! I love reading your journaling. And yes, I’m in love with you remote idea too! xxxx
Hi Jodie,
Thanks so much for your sweetness.
The remote $5 ! It’s a no brainer. Just make sure your Particular model can use one.
Thanks For Dropping In

Of course, I LOVE your pages! I love the overall look. I like your color focus, which I never would have thought of. (I personally love orange.) And I like the little details, like the arrows on your five senses card. I’ve never used that card, because I thought I’d have to fill out info about all five senses. =) I will be copying that! XO!
Hi Donna,
You are always so very sweet. Thank you. It’s funny about the five senses card because I never looked at it as a “need to answer all these” type thing but, I have since noticed a lot of people do! Funny how different people see different things like that.
Thanks Ever So Much For Dropping In
Petra
LOVE your pages Petra, sticking to one colour (ORANGE) looks so clean and fresh. Love the simplicity of your smile card, I assumed it was digi & didn’t realise it was washi tape until you said. Are the little brackets from Studio Callico Wood Veneers?
Hi Leanne,
Thank you. The little brackets are from Studio Calico chipboard Thickers called “Anywhere” which I got from Jodie. Same as the letter I used for the “Week 6″ on the title card.
Thanks For Dropping In
Petra
Love it. In particular the colour orange and the number 6 hahaha
Soooooooo much inspiration here as always
Hi Michelle,
Thanks as always you are very generous with your comments.
Thanks For Dropping In
Petra
Beautiful page. I’m glad someone else uses letter as other letter. I make “o” out of “b” or “d” etc all the time.
Hi Amanda,
Yes it’s good to get the most out of the packet of letters. Love it.
Thanks For Dropping In
Petra
Lovely pages, as always Petra. I’ve been meaning to buy a remote for my new camera, and have just now ordered one after reading your comment above
HI Kylie,
That’s awesome. I think if you capture even one image of you that you otherwise would not then it’s worth it.
Thanks For Dropping In
Petra

Hi Carolyn,
I am little orange biassed but don’t they look great?!… well, the orange does anyway
Thanks For Dropping In
Petra
[...] both from Studio Calico. Again trying to stick with “Simple is good” like I did in my Week 6. I must say I am really enjoying these little filler [...]
