BEACH FUN - LO
The hardest part of this LO was taking the photos. Nothing like tempting fate while standing on a rolling chair on new wood floors trying to snap that perfect photo. I guess you can say I like to live on the edge. I hate taking photos of LO's. They don't fit in my light box, the light is never great for taking pics when I get around to doing it, and there's also that whole tempting fate thing.
This was a quick and simple LO of our trip to the beach last year with our niece and nephew. I used a few different Cricut carts to complete it. The title was cut using Pack Your Bags cartridge at 2". I altered the title a bit as it had a chair and bucket attached to it, but it looked a little busy to me. So I cut them off. The sun is from the Doodle Charms cart cut at 2", the ball and bucket were both cut from the Simply Charmed cart. The ball at 3 1/2' and the bucket at 4 1/2".
I'm hoping someone out there has a easier way to photo LO's. Any suggestions? How do you all do it? Or does everyone risk life and limb and stand on a rolling chair like me?
