First I have had this vintage map of New York paper for ages and wanted to use my favourite picture from our anniversary trip to New York in 2011. I have also managed to get my hands on some of those fab crate paper slide frames and tried something I had seen on Pinterest framing part of a picture but leaving the interesting side part. I really like the result and also used a tag I made with paint, masks and spray ink ages ago that has been waiting for a project. Some stickers and words from my sticker stash and it was complete, I like that it has a sticker from my very fist scrapbook kit from Ria's shop from 2005!
Then I was on a roll so I started on the pictures from our trip to Dorset, we had such a lovely few days with my friend from uni and it was fab to catch up and see the beautiful part of the world that she now lives in. The drive from Bridport to Abbotsbury was the most stunning drive since we were in New Zealand it is a shame I had to drive and couldn't take pictures!
So this layout is my boy trying surfing on a British beach! I based it on a sketch by Ronda Palazzari for MME and I really enjoyed doing something a bit different, this was also a good chance to use some beach / surf themed paper and rub ones by Kaisercraft that I used for a project last year. The ink splashes and enamel dots work well and I like using things instead of just hoarding them!!
