Egg Hunt (127/365)

Sorry for being MIA for the last little bit, the evenings have not been good health wise but I am going back to the doctor Monday for follow-up from my surgery and hopefully they will have surgery results and a follow-up action plan (here's hoping because i'm so sick and tired of being sick and tired).

First up tonight is a fun layout I created of an egg hunt I did for my husband last year (Easter 2014). I put sticky notes all over the house (numbered) with a clue and cadbury cream eggs (his favorite) which sent him all over the house to find the next clue and at the end of the hunt was his big present (book and large sucker). He was so touched by the gesture that he wanted to put everything together and take a picture so i could scrapbook it (he is seriously my biggest fan!!!). Here is my layout:

I based this layout on April 1st stuck sketch, a wonderfully fun sketch by Laura Whitaker: http://stucksketches.blogspot.ca/2015/04/april-1-2015-challenge-and-guest.html

I was also inspired by the colours and themes from Papercrafting corner magazine monday #93: http://papercrafterscorner.com/blog/papercrafting-challenge-magazine-mondays-week-93/
