Camp More Work Less

Camp More Work Less - Wow, this was definitely our theme as we left a very hectic month of packing all our belongings into storage, finishing up work, renting our homes and stocking an RV for a two+ year trip.



Camp More Work Less - April 3, 2010 - South Padre Island, Texas

JOURNALING: We arrived on South Padre Island on April 3. We would spend the next 4 weeks relaxing on the beach & kiteboarding.

SUPPLIES USED: Travel Stack by DCWV, K&Company paper ribbon, Cricut Stamped Cartridge, K&Company dimensional stickers

TECHNIQUE TIP:  I love using tags on my layouts for journaling (as you can see), but I wanted to start using them in different ways so I created this title using layered tags.  The tags and their bottom layers were cut on my Cricut Expression using the Stamped cartridge.  I love this cartridge and the irregular lines that it gives to the letters.  For more examples of layouts using tags in various ways, please visit my techniques for tags online gallery.

Another tip is that even though this is not a double page layout, when I open my scrapbook, this pages faces the one I posted yesterday (see post below).  I wanted some sense of congruency between the pages so I utilized the same patterned paper in both to unify the two single page layouts and complete the mood.
