Vacation Photos

Whenever I feel stressed or worried in life, I stop and think about my recent adventure to Sedona.  It was a special time where all seemed right in the world.  I was clear and calm and centered.  Imagining it brings me back to that place.  I believe that deserves a page.

 

I scrapped this for the SFTIO August kit, Liberation.  I journaled about how Steve and I took that quality time for ourselves and it was wonderful.

 

 

I love the color schemes from this kit, blues and oranges with gold.  I kept my design simple with some scattered elements around the page.

 

 

I love the orange hexagons and was so reminded of the red rocks in Sedona!  I like to use vacation photos to capture feelings and moments.  I am glad I recorded these feelings.

 

 



Repeating the Elements

I love to create pages with repeated elements, especially when I can play with scale.  It is like home decorating when you group objects.  Repeating elements allows a page to move because the eye travels to the like.  I made this page about my handsome son.  Who know stands as tall as my chest level.  I am not sure where time is going. 

 

 

 

I used the Something Wonderful collection by Teresa Collins to create this page.  Yummy goodies for sure.  I cut the & signs from the papers and journaling cards.  I don't use a cutting machine very often so handcutting is my way of making things unique.

 

I love these little stars!  Nathan is a star in my eyes and I love to have him around.  Truly blessed, I am.

 

 

 

100 Years Later...

I make another blog post.  I have been lost in real life, managing the summer and enjoying life.  I click on the blog and am at a loss for words.  I might just need to post more and talk less.

I have been working on pages for Scrapbooking from the Inside Out.  I am truly enjoying working with the kits.

 

I made this page with the August kit called Liberation.  What a cool theme with an upbeat tempo!

 

I scrapped about my friendships and how that part of my life makes me feel free and young.  I am so grateful for laughter and teasing and dancing and bonding.  Those strong relationship add another dynamic to life.

 

I did lots of layering and fun colors on this page.  The kit is full of Glitz and Basic Grey!  Fun stuff!

 

I am off to enjoy the final days of summer.
