This photo of me with Mom and Phil shows off our rarely captured but often exposed silly side.
The 22nd sketch challenge has been posted at the SCRAP & MUSIC challenge blog! Head over to the site to grab the sketch, which I’m proud to have designed, and play along. This sketch came with the song “Don’t Worry Be Happy” by Bobby McFerrin.
My layout
This is just one of those photos that I think all families probably have—the make-a-silly-face photo. I love it because it’s posed yet carefree. That’s me, Mom and Phil in our kitchen in May 1979. When I saw this shot in my photo organizer, I thought it fit the mood of this week’s challenge song quite well.
Product/technique notes
The background paper is a lovely pattern from The Girls’ Paperie. I created a Silhouette cut file to cut the hearts from the background paper and then backed it with red cardstock. I also designed the title and cut the butterflies on my Cameo.
The challenge
The challenges on this blog involve following the sketch and using a title on your layout with a line from the provided music. Below I’ve included the video as well as the lyrics for this song:
“Don’t Worry Be Happy” by Bobby McFerrin
Here’s a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don’t worry, be happy
In every life we have some trouble
But when you worry, you make it double
Don’t worry, be happy
Don’t worry, be happy now
Oo, ooo…
Don’t worry, be happy (x4)
Oo, ooo…
Ain’t got no place to lay your head
Somebody came and took your bed
Don’t worry, be happy
The land-lord say your rent is late
He may have to litigate
Don’t worry, be happy
Look at me, I’m happy
Don’t worry, be happy
Let me give you my phone number
When you worry, call me I will make you happy
Don’t worry, be happy
Ain’t got no cash, ain’t got no style
Ain’t got no girl to make you smile
Don’t worry, be happy
‘Cause when you worry your face will frown
And that will bring everybody down
So don’t worry, be happy
Don’t worry, be happy now
Oo, ooo…
Don’t worry, be happy (x4)
Oo, ooo…
Don’t worry, don’t worry, don’t do it, be happy
Let the smile on your face
Don’t bring everybody down like this
Don’t worry, people will soon pass
What ever it is
Don’t worry, be happy
I am not worried, I am happy
A fun page Janice!! Love it!!
