From the crop - third kit to page

Everything Shimelle.

And it fits so well for travel.

 From the broken foot tour

 Again I used some stamps, wood veneers and the world die 

from Shimelle again. And don't the layer rather lovely.

 The little hearts are cosmo cricket from my stash.

 Niagara was awesome.

I picked my best 3 photos and as always still working

on that skill.

I'm pleased with the layers and it doesn't need a lot of journaling.

Little bit of fussy cutting

Love the banner paper and

and as you can see its have the paper it used to be.

I decided it would be fun to fussy cut the

little banners.

And it was.

I also used a circle punch to cut out the adorable

critters to use an embellishment.

I whacked out 3 only 2 made it on the page.

The camera is a fussy cut as well from Shimelle's collection.

Some strips of paper and an adorable bow

that was glued to the page prior to picking out a photo

of fun on the playground.

My bad.

Used some pop dots on the banners and camera to give them a lift.

This was a fun page to do and I love how it turned out.

It was a great time with grandkids on the monkey bars

on the playground, at the campground

from the broken foot tour.

Lawn Fawn, Shimelle, Authentique.

I'll be out of pocket for a few days.

Miss me :)

In the pink!

I sort of got carried away.

Starting with the hombre paper.

Who knew there was that many shades of pink.

And isn't that a fun thing to find out.

This photo was taken while on the broken foot tour.

The kids came up to hang with us at the campsite and while in

the camper Amelia found grandpop's hat.

And she looked totally adorable.

And it was fun.

She just owned it.

Love the Echo Park, again. Studio Calico, Paper Studio and Dear Lizzy stamp.

Reusing the same embellishment on other layouts

Its not like a rule or anything.

And its a different color.

And it works.

So why not?

Since breaking into my diecuts again, I've been having a good time with them.

And if you'll notice the circles (cookie cutters and I just LOVE).

Anyway I liked the way they were on this page 

kind of like a bullseye. 

As I shuffled with these 8 pix around on several different pages
for days (drama much) because honestly a lot of photos baffle me
and so do 2 page layouts which this one is not, I had an extra circle element
and tossed in the corner and it looked great - the color wasn't right
but it was perfect for the space.
Also not alot of call for tree trunks and you'll be very impressed on
how I worked in those 2.
Of course there was no room for journaling so I called on
my linguistic skills of just getting to the point and not rambling.
It worked. For the most part.

The majority is Echo Park - I picked up the Capture Life pack
and the tree trunks, labels, enamel dots and wooden arrows are Studio Calico and an
Evalicious button to finish it up.

We had the best time at the campground with the kids.
There was a playground to hang out on and we were able to build
a lovely campfire for hot dogs and marshmellows.
Doesn't get any better than that.
