Travel at Use Your Stuff

 

Are you ready to do some traveling?  I am.  I have a trip to Las Vegas planned for Spring Break but in the meantime, I will be working on my daughter's travel album.  This is the cover page for her semester in Europe with EF Gap


I was inspired by the February challenge at Stick it down single-page sketch


I moved the elements around so that I could use the second half of the globe from my earlier layout of my daughter's participation in the World Games opening ceremony the challenge was filling in the open half with only one photo.  So I pulled out my travel-themed items and got busy.  I still need some journaling on the card beneath the photo but want it to be done by Jessica.


Here's a closer look at the photo embellishment cluster.
I incorporated a small tag that was gifted to me for a FB group which lead to me pulling out the leaves with the metallic touches.  Love how it all comes together.

Holy tomatoes

I’m back with another layout. Two creative days in a row.  Would love to keep the streak going but have to get back to coaching the swim team tomorrow.
In the meantime enjoy the latest creation inspired by Sketch-n-Scrap


and here is my take on the sketch.  I documented our harvest of 80 pounds of tomatoes this summer from our garden.  We made sauce, stewed tomatoes, and froze some as well.

It has a touch of gold, puffy stickers, and a dolly. 
 I also used arrows to complete the center column of the
