Longwood Gardens

 

It's been awhile since I worked on my 2011 photobook, so thought to create a double-page spread of our trip to Longwood Gardens near Philadelphia.  Beautiful Place!  We had so many pictures it was so difficult to chose the ones I used on my pages.  =)

I loosely used a sketch I found on Pinterest from Simple Stories blog -- Life Documented #2 Sketch.

I loved that this sketch had so many photos.... my husband loves to take them, and I love to show them off. =)

I also used the MDS Challenge - Color Challenge #4. Use Crisp Cantaloupe, Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, So Saffron and Smoky Slate on your page.

Supplies Used - My Digital Studio software 

Background paper - Coastal Cabana

Embellishments - Taffeta Ribbon (Basic Black)

Stamp Brush Sets - Presto Patterns Overlays (Bermuda Bay), All Scallops (scallop design - Basic Black), Earth Laughs (flower and flourish - Basic Black and So Saffron)

Freeform Tool - I colored in the flowers with So Saffron.

Punch - Scallop Border (Smoky Slate), Square (Crisp Cantaloupe)

Font - Regency and Pristina (Basic Black)

Cleveland Zoo

 

I'm up to August 2009 in my scrapbooking....slowly, but surely I will be caught up-to-date! lol! I'm sure having fun creating these pages with My Digital Studio software.
Mike and I were in Cleveland to visit family, so we took my sister and her kids to the zoo one day. It was a beautiful day to spend with family.
Thanks for looking!
