That is a beautiful piece of pp that I would have been all perplexed about. I like that you started a challenge with this idea to get us using this kind of pp! The way you arranged your pics WORKS!
Love the crispness of this page...you 2 travel a lot! you are such a sweet couple in those photos! Is that your handwriting or a type?-you know I love your handwriting! why cant I tell?!
What a delightful layout!! I LOVE your pictures and working with the design-in-the-corner background paper (never easy in my book!) really makes the page! Awesome job!
Lovely, so bright and sharp perfect for your Maine photos! I will have to take inspiration from Ro's comment and start leaving a thank you in my description, not that I ever did a thank you message to everyone that left me a vote or comment. Not enough time in a day to do it all!! I always love your doodling on a page.
Great pp for this of course. And I love the doodled edges on all your white mats and the journaling block etc. The semi-transparent heart is also a really cute touch. So neat that you were able to do a bucket list sort of thing. But now it just reminds me how much I too have been wanting to go to Maine and try some lobster too. My shellfish allergic husband... not so much though. Glad your trip together was so enjoyable. :)
Hi Doreen. I was just wondering about you a couple days ago. Nice to see you! I also find it hard to keep up with everything too. With me I dont very often leave thank you messages for those who vote or comment in my gallery. Thats why I always say thank you in my descriptions. I enjoy looking at everyones creations and I leave more votes than compliments but I do at least hit MOST galleries. You just have to do what youre able and cut corners when you have to. Isnt that the way it is with most everything in life? :o)Ro
I sometimes struggle to work with papers with large images on them...you did a great job of arranging photos on this. Love all the little details you added too. The East coast is my happy place and I don't get there nearly often enough!
Today's layout was inspired by a favorite Scrapbooking blog, but in a different way.
If you recall I used to frequently play along w/ a blog called the "Counterfeit Kit Challenge" blog.
Though I have wanted to play along, I just haven't found the time to this year.
I don't have time to create and photograph a kit, nor do I have time to put all the unused items from my kit neatly back into my stash.
But the other day I was inspired by another way to play.
This was copied and pasted from a recent post of theirs:
"Are you feeling overwhelmed by the idea of a big kit this month?Perhaps you just want to pull together a few products to get those creative juices flowing again.
Maybe a mini kit is the answer!
A mini kit can be a smaller version of the main kit, or a small kit specifically curated for use as a page kit, card-making, a mini album, pocket scrapbooking or planning. Whatever works best for you! We are all about using up our supplies so whatever fits into your schedule - you can use the mini kit option at any time you like!
Susan decided to try something a little different this month - she looked to the mood board, released as a "sneak peek" just before the beginning of each month, as inspiration for her August mini kit. Here's the mood board"
(see 3rd Slide).
A smaller kit and the mood board is what motivated me to finally scrap some photos from my Boston/Maine vacation last year.
Hey, only 1 year behind? Not bad, LOL
- If you don't know I love taking photos of my vacations but hate scrapping photos of my vacations... too many photos! #Overwhelmed
My kit included:
- The Maine BG paper
- The Kelley Purkey "Best Coast" Stamp Set
I used 4 stamps: the anchor, "East Coast", "Fresh Seafood", and "Coastal Views"
- A StazOn Jet Black ink pad
- Bits and pieces from some old Elle Studio kits
- White scrap paper for matting and accents
- Sharpies (black and red)
- Project Life App for journaling
I selected a digital journaling card, typed my journaling, and printed on heavy white paper
- 2 Circle Punches
