Welcome to this month's Paper Trail Blog Hop! If you're Cruisin' along (wink, wink) you've probably arrived here from
Linda's blog. If this is your first stop, don't worry - this hop is circular. Either way we're glad you could join us! This month we are featuring the
Cruisin' paper pack.
Here is the layout I created using this fun paper:
I chose to document a sad memory - the closing of one of my hubby's favorite hang outs.
I liked the subtle effect of the patterns just peeking out. (Although I really wanted to use the scrabble and map paper, they just didn't seem to work here.)
I left space for him to journal on the light pattern about what he liked about Clark's. (More likely, I will ask him questions and then record what he says.)
In addition to the Cruisin' papers, I used the coordinating
Bottle Caps which were perfect in theme and sentiment for this layout.
I also created a stamped border on the background card stock using my new favorite stamps set -
Super Powers.
This skyline stamp caught my eye when the idea book first came out, but I held off since I wasn't sure how often I would use it, or if I would use the other stamps in the set. I was so pleased with the effect on this layout that I think we will all be seeing more of this stamp!
I'm glad you stopped by! Please leave me a comment to let me know what you think before you cruise on along to
Mary's blog to see what she created.
