I'm sharing this layout at:

* Mystical Scrapbooks ~ Cyber crop ~ Grid of 6
Well actually, it started as a grid of 6, offset to one side. Then I realised my photo would entirely cover one of the squares, so I shuffled it around a bit, LOL.

Exploring the sights of Bladensburg NP on our first outback trip.

Not all those who wander...

I had fun putting this page together!



Inspired by, and sharing at:

* Scrap Challenge YOUrself ~ Favourite quote
There are SO many quotes that I love, so it's hard to pick a favourite. This is one of my favourite travel-themed quotes, from JRR Tolkein: "Not all those who wander are lost." I think it really suits us - because we do LOTS of road-tripping in the Australian outback. Our favourite phrase (not a quote) is, "I wonder where that road goes?"... and off we go to check it out!

* Off the Rails ~ Travel inspiration
I have to say, most of my layout shares are places from my travels. But for this one, I included some travel-themed elements too ~ ticket, quote, and arrows. And a spot of journalling to mark the location :)

Remember

Inspired by the October challenge at The Scrapbooking Den:

This is a companion page for one I made earlier in the year. The single red flower in the mood board made me think of red poppies and I knew exactly which photo I wanted to feature on this layout.  I used papers from 13@rts Unforgettable collection.

Thank you for visiting my blog!

And so...

Filling in a few more page gaps in my older albums.



Inspired by, and sharing at:

* Scrappy Friends ~ Rochelle's sketch

* Scrappy Friends ~ Stacy's Tic Tac Toe
I used the middle column: washi tape, flowers, circle

White with ORANGE

This is my design team share for the White with 1 October challenge.

WHITE with any variation of ORANGE
+ take some inspiration from the mood board
+ "USE THIS" element: FLAIR

I started with the soda bottle from the mood board, and went with a food theme.  My design tip:  Customise flair using word stickers to suit your page.
 


The soda bottle is a die cut ephemera piece from Vicki Boutin's Let's Wander collection, and the flair is from Fancy Pants Attwell. I added a phrase sticker from Tim Holtz Idea-ology - Small Talk booklet.
