For my project, I have chosen to do Dr. Seuss. They are such fun and easy first readers with the rhymes he has and the colorful illustrations. I have chosen to do a 2-page lay-out and hope you enjoy!!! My first page is dedicated to “One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish with Dr. Suess’ logo sew to speak, the hat that the Cat in the Hat Wears. Page 2 is dedicated to the Cat in the Hat. Look at the terrible mischief they’ve gotten into not to mention that Thing 1 and Thing 2 have come to play. Poor Goldie is hanging on for dear life!!!!
- Back ground paper is from DCWV The Mrs Claus’ Kitchen Stack
- The paper used for the photo mats is from a DCWV stack which I can’t remember the name
- Dr. Suess One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish and the hat are a Mardenz file
- Ribbon used was from a wonderful “care” package from a dear friend, Rachelle Larsen
- Cat in the Hat, Things One and Thing Two along with Goldie are a paper piecing file from Treasure Box Designs called Cat and Friends, http://www.treasureboxdesigns.com/category_12/6/Whats-New.htm.
