Altered Freaky Fast Formula for notebook paper size layout to feature Cape Girardeau Flood Wall photos

Instead of a sketch design to follow for the layout, I am using a formula shared in The Scraproom Blog and group for March 2019:

Thanks to Heather Guy for designing this FFF for TSR. Since I prefer to use 8.5" x 11" base papers for layouts, I've adjusted sizes to 6 of 2.5" squares, 1 of 10" x 1.5", and 1 of 11" x .5". Before I even saw the sample Heather had made for the blogpost I was planning a similar format:

I swapped the zig-zag lime green stripe with the pale green and moved the hummingbird print to the middle position. Ultimately the layout is switched to vertical format since I had 2 rectangle photos and am using a 8.5" x 11" size base.

design notes regarding sketch layout formula:
a. I already had 2.5" squares ready to go so that was an easy choice and also better for working with the 8.5" x 11" base.
b. The 10" x 2" was reduced to just under 10" x 1.5" for teal/aqua with white dot cardstock strip
c. The 12" x 1/2" was reduced to 11" x 1/2" with one end angled.
d. Then I added a little bit of journaling/caption notes and some neat Treasure Map Word Stickers from October Afternoon along with a few scattered butterflies to accent the layout.

This was indeed fast to put together, especially since I already had the 6 squares cut from 6 different patterned papers. I just LOVE this layout! I love the how the colors of the paper reflect a lot of the colors found in the photos. I love how the word stickers help add to the water/river theme and some humor!

Thanks, TSR for a fabulous Freaky Fast Formula!
