what a lovely thing that you two share!! A small thing like that in a marriage is the super glue to keep things together! Love this and the story behind it!
How romantic to ride on carousels every time you can find one when you go on a vacation. I think that is a beautiful tradition and indulgence. And it is totally cool that your husband is always on top of getting a photo of both of you when you go on a ride. Your layout is so adorable with all the tiny hearts and that background paper with the hot air balloons. Those little tickets were the perfect touch! fave
My favorite thing about this lo is the hearts floating! You can almost sense them moving. Cool balloons and clouds too. I also really love your picture.
I have to admit...this is so very romantic and a beautiful layout. The photo of the two of you on the carousel is wonderful . The sparkle of the little hearts throughout the page is the perfect accent. So well done.
This is a great second round. It is freaky how many things we like the same. I love amusement parks as well and you have just done the best page here. I love the paper you chose. As I saw this in the feed I thought that has to be one of Pat's. Love the layering and those hearts. Great page.
This is so cool Pat! I can totally see how you took elements from my page and made them your own, like the basic bones of the color palette, the word "love", the layered paper on the sides, and the scattered hearts. I LOVE the photo of you and DH...so precious. I'm glad i made you stretch your scrap muscles a little bit to go outside your comfort zone, lol.
One of the things Tom and I like to do when we go on vacation is find a local amusement park and visit it. When we went to San Diego, it would SEEM that the logical choice would be Disneyland, but we're kind of off the beaten path people, so we opted for Belmont Park.
We had a really fun time, although it took us two tries to get there. The first time we tried to go, it was closed. We being Okies could not figure out why such a thing would be so, but there you go.
Hubby is the one who always asks somebody if they'll take our picture. He's thoughtful like that. Me, I'm always so excited to be riding a bunny next to a goose that I forget.

This is my round robin lift. I'm a round two player this time, and I had the opportunity to lift Erin for the first time. Her layout, "Love is in the Air" was just lovely - and her style was definitely a bit of a challenge for me as she's an extremely contemporary artist!
I'm also going to turn this into Doreena's Amusement Park challenge. That one is always fun too!
I used up a bunch of old Kaisercraft product on this. I also created my own little dimensional stickers by layering some patterned paper on chipboard and then using a little heart punch to punch them out. Covered them with some crackle accents and they really pumped up my project a bit. Then I used the punched holes to create a mask for the little brown inked hearts on the script paper. Worked great! The embossing powder is something called Rustique Tin Can from Judikins. I mixed a little patina powder with it for the "love" word just to give it a bit of a feature...
