Epic Story

Hello, hello! Happy Monday to you. Hope that you had a fabulous weekend. One fun thing I did this weekend was participate in the Scrapbook Circle Instagram Round Robin where our team shared layout inspiration using the May Hello Sunshine Kit.  I loved getting to see what the team created with the kit!

Here's a look at the layout I shared:

The inspiration for this page came from all of those gold rimmed tags that are on the page. They were scattered on my desk and the idea of scattering circles on my page sounded like a fun plan. I pulled out a couple of my circle punches and had fun layering the circles and photos on the page.

When I think of the word epic, I think of words like awesome, cool and amazing, so it felt like epic was just right for the title of this page about a weekend away to Seattle with my husband. I've actually already created one page with these same photos, but I has an extra set in a pile on my dest and decided to play with them. You can see my original layout with these photos here.

I love documenting our stories!

Pike's Place Market

A couple of weeks ago Ward and I spent a long weekend exploring Seattle. One of my favorite places was Pike's Place Market. I loved looking at all of the beautiful produce and flowers. And the fish. And the food. And the people!

 I took a bunch of photos and decided to gather a few of my favorites for a layout inspired by our Glitz challenge to use triangles on a layout.

While we were on our flight to Seattle, I sketched out a bunch of triangle layout ideas knowing that once I returned home I'd be doing this challenge. Here's a look at my sketches.

I ended up going with my first idea, but will maybe give some of the other sketches a try sometime.

My Silhouette was put to good use on this page. I drew a triangle in the Silhouette program and then copied and pasted it to create this triangle background.

It was really fun adding bits and pieces to each of the little triangle sections. I'm thinking that the triangle pattern was so great to work with that I want to try another similar layout soon where I play around with a different shape.
