Digital fun with Scrapstreet.com

I just love creating digital layouts. You can really experiment with colors, sizes, and even textures and not worry about "ruining" anything. If you don't like it, just hit the "undo" feature. At The School of Scrap.com, we were challenged to create a layout using the poem "Sick" by Shel Silverstein. Upon looking at some older pictures, I can across this picture of my oldest son and thought...That is PERFECT!!

Thank you to Dora Phillips at Scrap Street.com for creating this awesome digital kit "Touch of Tile".

Sick
"I cannot go to school today,"
Said little Peggy Ann McKay.
"I have the measles and the mumps,
A gash, a rash and purple bumps.
My mouth is wet, my throat is dry,
I'm going blind in my right eye.
My tonsils are as big as rocks,
I've counted sixteen chicken pox
And there's one more--that's seventeen,
And don't you think my face looks green?
My leg is cut, my eyes are blue--
It might be instamatic flu.
I cough and sneeze and gasp and choke,
I'm sure that my left leg is broke--
My hip hurts when I move my chin,
My belly button's caving in,
By back is wrenched, my ankle's sprained,
My 'pendix pains each time it rains.
My nose is cold, my toes are numb,
I have a sliver in my thumb.
My neck is stiff, my voice is weak,
I hardly whisper when I speak.
My toungue is filling up my mouth,
I think my hair is falling out.
My elbow's bent, my spine ain't straight,
My temperature is one-o-eight.
My brain is shrunk, I cannot hear,
There is a hole inside my ear.
I have a hangnail, and my heart is --what?
You say today is . . . Saturday?
G'bye, I'm going out to play!"
