Write it on Wednesday - five little words


Today’s Write it on Wednesday idea is really easy.

Find a picture that you love, or that you think you should scrap

Jot down FIVE words that come to mind to describe or relate to the picture or the story behind it.

You can stop there and use those words to embellish your layout. Here are some ways to add the words:

  • print onto patterned paper and cut out into separate strips
  • add using rub-ons
  • write in your own handwriting
  • use small alpha stamps
  • use letter stickers
OR try now developing the words into a sentence or sentences

Add to your LO as a journalling block or a series of journalling strips

Here is my photo - from a holiday in Cornwall 3 years ago.

Here are my five words:

  • labyrinth/maze
  • prehistoric?
  • fake?
  • Rocky Valley (OK that's two really...)
  • flood

Here they are developed into phrases/sentences:

  • I love mazes of all kinds.
  • Is this prehistoric?
    or a Victorian fake?
    in beautiful Rocky Valley
    that was destroyed just two weeks later by the flood that also drowned Boscastle.

Here's a digi sketch of how the page might look (needs a lot of development!)

Now try it for yourself!
