First Honeymoon Scrapbook pages


Hey everyone!

I have officially started our honeymoon scrapbook. We went to Disney World for a week. This scrapbook will be very colorful! :) I managed to do 3 layouts today.

This first one is the flight to Disney World. We had a 3 hour direct flight. It was my first airplane ride ever and I didn't do the journaling on these pages yet, but I'm hoping to do that tonight.


This next layout is of our arrival at our resort and of our room. It is at Animal Kingdom Lodge at the Jambo house and everything is African themed. It's a gorgeous place to stay and I highly recommend staying on resort. This layout is based off of Let's Scrap 10-6-10 sketch. 



I used the brochure I got for the Jambo House as the title but instead of cutting it apart or taping it down, I made a pocket to put it in so I could take it out and keep for a souvenir. It has a map of the resort in there and other cool things.

This last layout is eating out at the Coral Reef in Epcot. It's very pretty inside and they have a huge aquarium to look at. I took two challenges and combined them. The sketch is based off of Let's Scrap's 9-14-11 Challenge and the colors are for Color Combos Galore 209 challenge: Teal, orange, melon, and white. 

Thanks for looking!

Busy Scrappin' Today!

I have completed two challenges already today. One is a two page layout and one is just a one page layout. The first one I created is for Frosted Designs Fabulous Friday Challenge and you are to use tickets, stamps, or envelopes in your design.

In this layout, I have displayed photos of the different things I came up with as we were planning our wedding such as centerpieces, we made and designed our own save-the-dates, invitations, and programs as well as decorating and making my own ring bearer pillows and flower girl baskets. I made a pocket on each page of the 2 pg. layout so I could take my invitation, program, save-the-date out to show someone what the inside and back looked like too. I had some leftover stamps from our wedding invites that I used to decorate the pockets with and my KFYR-TV bridal show ticket that I saved to scrapbook also decorating one of the pockets.

Here it is:


The other challenge is for Color Combos Galore challenge #208 which is to use the color scheme they have and to include pearls in your layout. My pearls are going up the right side of the page alongside the rhinestones. I'm very pleased with the colors and pearls and how whimsical it is. The floral paper is a gift bag one of the gifts came in from our wedding. It was so gorgeous and I knew it would be gorgeous for a layout and it just happened to follow the color combo!

Check it out:


Thanks for looking again! Now I'm going to get back to work on the layout I'm currently working on! :D

Once in a while, in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairy tale.

That is probably one of my favorite quotes and we also had that printed on our wedding invitations which we made ourselves. My husband even helped by tying every ribbon on the invitations into a square knot. He's such an awesome helper. We didn't see the point of purchasing invitations when we both knew we could make an elegant, one of a kind invitation ourselves.

Today's project was inspired by color combo's galore color combo challenge #207. You had to follow the color palette(Brown nosed professor, I lilac reading, words on white, and I red a lot). Plus you had to use a dictionary or a text pattern to celebrate library month. My photos just happened to have a lilac background and our wedding colors were red and white, plus it was a fairy tale/Cinderella wedding which I thought made it just perfect for this challenge! The background paper I used is a red and lilac floral pattern that also has some faded text of a fairy tale on it. It is from the "Once Upon a Time Glitter Stack."  I also submitted this for Frosted Designs flourish challenge! So here it is:




For some reason this picture rotated itself...sorry about that! It's fixed.


I have more pages I "finished" today....I just need to attach the title....I ran out of adhesive for my Xyron! I will post those once I get that refilled! Thanks for looking and have a great evening!
