NC Aquarium

 

Continuing working on my 2009 scrapbook.  In February, while Mike and I were in North Carolina we spent a weekend day at the Aquarium.  I used the Cheerful Treat Vine border to create "seaweed" in the blue 'water' background.
Thanks for looking!

Photo mats - Kiwi Kiss
Text - Beach (Chocolate Chip)
Embellishments - Hoppy Memories (animals & elements), Cheerful Treat (border #6), Scallop Dots Ribbon & Knot (Chocolate Chip), Hodgepodge Hardware (Jumbo Eyelet- pewter)
Punches - Top Note Shape (filled with textured River Rock w/Chocolate Chip mat), Tag & Square (filled with River Rock  w/Chocolate Chip mat), Large Photo Corner (Chocolate Chip), Circle (filled w/Kiwi Kiss)
Stamp Brush Set - Autumn Harvest

  6. First of all, good for you for catching up on your scrapbooking. I stopped years back with my first 2 kids when they were 2...they are almost 7 now. I did do one for my new little guy, though. I really like the way you incorporated the colors and the photos with the simply scrappin kit. One of my faves!! Thanks for going "beachy" with us this week at Hand Stamped Sentiments.

    1. Thanks Krista! My husband and I travel a lot (for his work), so it's been difficult to keep up-to-date on scrapbooking. So, I was so happy when I got My Digital Studio software, so now I can do my scrapbooking while on the road and finally get up-to-date! =)
      I know it's difficult to scrapbook with little feet running around.... so many other things to do! Thanks for taking the time to comment and the opportunity for me to participate in the challenge!
