Carnival = Family Time
I had a lot of photos that I wanted to scrap from our recent trip to the carnival. When Becky Fleck asked me to create a layout based on a PageMaps sketch for the July newsletter and her website that included several photos, I knew exactly which pictures to use!
I loved the tiny little thumbnail photos. I opted for black and white pictures there so that they didn't compete too much for attention. I used my favorite shot from the day for the main photo, and the only photo I have of all three of my big boys for the supporting picture. I just had to use Hello Sunshine papers by Lily Bee for this one - they were the perfect colors for that wheel!
Did you notice the format? 8.5 x 11, double pager. That's two things I don't do often. I loved it! I think I might do this size more often :). With all the different size page protectors out there from different scrapbooking companies, I can definitely see various sized pages in an album soon.
Thank you to Becky for the opportunity to contribute! And thank you for stopping by! Tessa
