Our Adventure Book: The Carnival Page


This has got to be one of my favourite pages because it has great memories from this day and because it's so bright and colourful.

I wanted a carnival themed page going here so I glued down a white page and then stuck red strips of paper along the page to create the common carnival bunting colours. Using photo corners I picked up I placed photos around the page, I love the pattern on the photo corners it blends well with the theme and gives more of a pop of colour. 
I kept the second page quite plain with the carnival brochure and a picture from the opening parade. Also adding in the label of the teddy himself one for me at the hook a duck stand.

Our Adventure Book: The Busy page


I was dedicating every page to an individual moment but I've been holding on to these wrist bands and pictures for awhile so I decided to just but then together with more memories from different days and work as I collect things.

The top of the page captures our adventure on our last night of college with a boat party a long with the wrists hands we wore that night.


The bottom of the page is an idea I got from my friend who made me a photo album using envelopes gluded together. We had a busy couple of fun days together so I wanted to remember what we got up to by giving each day an envelope. 

 
Each evenlope contains pictures and a note about what got up to on that day. 
This envelope is my favourite because i put in this little recycled gift bag containing pressed petals from the flower himself picked for me on that day.

Our Adventure Book: The Beach page


A scrapbook is all about saving memories and one of them for us is our special day at the beach, just the two of us walking along the sand dunes, exploring an old church and finding a throne made from stones to sit in and watch then sea. 

There was many bautiful photos from this day but I decided to keep it focused on just the one so I printed a large copy of one (I print my photos using normal paper as they are going in the book anyway there's no need for photo paper)and made that he central piece. There was so many moments from this day that I didn't no how to express it on on page so I kept it simple with the picture and bus ticket from that day along with a note telling the story of what we got up to. Adding in a shell sticker and wooden butterfly topped it off nicely.
