Disney Cruise: Nassau

 Scrappy Monday, y'all!  I'm back with another Disney cruise layout, this one from Nassau.


I'm not 100% happy with this layout, I think the photo placement could have been better but it's done and done is better than perfect.  I did enjoy playing with these bright colors (that Artistry Blooms DSP is so fun) and I enjoyed busting out a super old stamp set, In the Sky, for the sun.  For reals I've had that stamp set for years.


Today's bright and fun palette:  Bermuda Bay, Magenta Madness, Mango Melody, Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight, and Whisper White.  I'm hoping to work Magenta Madness into another layout very soon, it's such an '80s color and I love it :)  Cheers, y'all!

Supplies, all SU!
Stamps:  Taffy Alphabet, In the Sky
Ink:  Magenta Madness, Mango Melody, Basic Gray marker
Paper:  Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight, Granny Apple Green, Thick Whisper White, Artistry Blooms DSP
Accessories:  Layering Circles dies

Madrid

Scrappy Monday, y'all!  We're now two days past Sodapop's due date, so who knows when we're going to get this show on the road.  In the meantime, I keep scrappin'.


Here's the last layout from our Spain trip with Missy and Bennet...I can't figure out why the pictures show up so dark on the blog post.  They look brighter before I upload them, I just don't get it.  Anyway, same color combo as the Segovia pages I posted on Friday, and the Shenanigans layout from last week; for some reason I just loved that triangular print with the Ancient Egyptian temple pictures.  (Why is there an Egyptian temple in the middle of a Madrid park?  Because when the Aswan Dam was built, the Nile flooded part of the delta where several ancient temples were located; archaeologists from around the world helped to get the temples moved from the site to save them and then Egypt gifted a few of the temples to other countries who helped with the preservation effort.  Also why there's an Egyptian temple in New York City.)


There's my title.  Spain makes me think of yellow and sun images so that's what I used...and look the sky is gray for most of my pictures.


Same colors as last time, y'all.  Sometimes I like to do multiple layouts in the same color combo so they look more like they all go together...although a lot of times I try to only do one layout for each event because I have a LOT of stuff to scrap.  But Spain got four layouts in the end :)

I'm off to get cleaned up and go to the grocery store.  I was there last Friday and got asked by a random woman if I was scared to be out and walking around town that close to my due date...uh no, obviously not since I was in line at the grocery store at the time ;)  Pretty sure I'm not going to give birth in Wegmans, ha.  Cheers!

Supplies, all SU!

Friday Flashback: In the Sky

Good morning, peeps!  Are you ready for a Friday Flashback?  This week's Flashback is pretty short...we're taking a look back at In the Sky.


I like celestial things okay, but I never really could figure out how to use this stamp set much, hence the super short flashback.  But I did finally make a scrapbook layout with it that I like, take a look at today's new creation:


Pictures are from our Mediterranean cruise; when we docked at Mykonos, the hubs and I took the ferry across to the tiny island of Delos, where Apollo and Artemis were born.  And of course the mythological twins are associated with the moon (Artemis) and sun (Apollo), so using In the Sky for these pages was a natural fit.



So there you go, sun and moon for Apollo and Artemis.


I had trouble coming up with a color combination for this layout, and I'm not 100% sold on what I used but I think it's okay.  I ended up with Hello Honey, Baked Brown Sugar, Wisteria Wonder, and Early Espresso.

That's it for me today, peeps.  Have a great weekend!
