Stop the presses... I actually did a layout! I've gotten away from it in the last couple of years, but the Seaside Summer Collection just called to me!
At the beginning of the summer, my husband and I bought a new boat. We had to bring it up to Massachusetts from Staten Island, NY so we made a fun trip of it. A friend was on a nearby boat and snapped this fabulous photo of us driving past the Statue of Liberty. I knew I had to scrap it! Take a peek...
I wanted a nautical theme, so I used the Captain's Wheel SVG from the Anchor's Aweigh collection. I edited the file to make the center open so I could create a fun scene.
I used the bonus waves die from the Seaside Summer Doodle Cuts to create some wave layers. The clouds were created using some distress ink and a cloud stencil. All that was left was to add the cute stickers from the Icon and Mini Icon Sheets. The wheel is popped up using some foam tape to give it a little dimension.
I backed my photo with some papers from the 6x6 pad, then added some fun words from the Chit Chat Pack and stickers from the This and That Sticker Sheet. I tucked a couple of tags from the Bits & Pieces behind my photo for color.
To balance my layout I added a little embellishment cluster in the bottom corner. I couldn't do a layout without using the adorable Steven Sea-Gull and that cute crab! The waves were my trimmings from the center piece. The dock was cut using the scallop die from the Borders and Edges Doodle Cuts.
I had such a fun time piecing this together. I think I need to do more scrapbooking!
