Scrapbook Global is a facebook page devoted to using Stampin’ Up! products on your scrapbook pages.  This month they had a great sketch challenge and I knew immediately which photos I wanted to use.  We recently took our grandsons away to Yeppoon and Hervey Bay and they were keen to spend some time fishing.  We didn’t have much luck in Yeppoon but in Hervey Bay both boys caught fish, even if they were too small to keep.  You can see by their faces they were very happy.  I started by stamping the netting image from the Sea of Textures stamp set onto a Whisper White 12″ x 12″ page using Crumb Cake ink.  I attached various strips of off cuts of the Come Sail Away Designer Series Paper and also a strip of 5/8″ Burlap Ribbon.  I attached my photos to Night of Navy card and attached them over the Designer Series Paper.  I added a title cut from Night of Navy card using the retired Large Letters Dies.  I added the date to Whisper White card cut using the Stitched Rectangle Dies and attached it to a Night of Navy rectangle cut using the same dies.  I attached the panel over another strip of Come Sail Away Designer Series Paper and added a starfish cut from Soft Suede card using the Under The Sea Dies.  I stamped the octopus image from the Sea of Textures stamp set onto Whisper White card using Balmy Blue ink and cut it out using the matching Under The Sea Dies.  I attached it to a piece of Crumb Cake card cut using the netting die from the Under The Sea Dies and then onto the page to the right of the photos.  I stamped the seaweed image from the Sea of Textures stamp set onto Whisper White card using Mossy Meadow ink and cut it out using the co-ordinating Under The Sea Die.  I attached a small starfish to the seaweed (cut from Crumb Cake card using the Under The Sea Dies) before attaching to the page below the Octopus.  I cut another seaweed image from Mossy Meadow card and attached it to a Sand Dollar image cut from Soft Suede (both cut using the Under The Sea Dies).  The seaweed is attached to the Sand Dollar and onto the edge of the left hand photo.  I added another Sand Dollar to the right hand photo.  The journaling is hand written using the fabulous Stampin’ Up! Journaling pens.

It’s kind of a busy page for me but I think it works well with the photos, don’t you?

Bye for now,

Kris
