Sat Jan 3: Theme Song

Well now, pull up a rockin’ chair, grab yourself a cup of somethin’ hot, and get ready—because this month @ Cookin' up Creations we’re takin’ a trip right down to the Ozark roots of the Clampett clan and then hitchin’ a ride straight to the glitzy streets of Beverly Hills. That’s right, your January scrapbooking adventure is inspired by none other than The Beverly Hillbillies—where rustic meets ritzy, simple meets swanky, and we’re all just tryin’ to keep Granny out of the “cement pond.”

As we dive into this homespun meets high-falutin’ theme, it’s time to strike a little “black gold” of your own—creative gold, that is. We’re talkin’ pages that shimmer brighter than Ellie Mae’s smile and layouts that’ll make your creativity bubblin’ up faster than an oil well on a Tuesday.

I apologize for the super late post today!

Even though I never really watched the show, I have the theme song memorized! "Come and listen to my story 'bout a man named Jed, a poor mountaineer, barely kept his family fed. And then one day he was shootin' at some food, and up through the ground came a bubblin' crude. Oil that is, black gold, Texas tea."


Today's challenge is inspired by these first few lines:
1. Include a story on your page (at least 4 lines of journaling).
2. Use photo(s) of a memorable man in your life.
3. Use gold on your layout - alphas, stars, ink splatters, anything goes!


My example is about our friend Chase learning a dance routine with the Denver Nuggets Dancers:

Hope you have fun with this one and that it was worth the wait!

Happy Scrapping!
