I have scrapped at last! Jess came back from Gran Canaria this week with a loads of new photos so thought I had better do a layout with photos of her Milan holiday first! This double layout shows the fun she & Aaron had at the water park.
Its an ok layout. I am disappointed in that I wanted to make the title Italian and use Milano and Aqua paradisium. but I only had scraps of the alphas to use so did not have enough letters to make the title as I really wanted it - so it is a boring English title. I decided to follow a Becky Fleck page map for this layout- but as usual - this final work looks nothing like the page map!
Cardstock is from DCWV pastel stack, PP - urban lily: doodle daisy, alphas - making memories flocked Velvet and doodlebug designs: all mixed up white rub ons. Journalling stickers : American Crafts. Ribbon, stickles glitter glue. Flip flop brads - Lakeland.
This is the original page map I tried to follow - I always worry when my final layout looks so different from the sketch I should have been following - because the original had some design element thrown into it - whereas mine is just a mish mash of putting things were they can go without much design element to it - which is why they never look as good as the experts ones.
