Scrapbook Challenge

Summer Smiles

Tropical Punch

Hi scrappers! I bring young more sketch this month and it embodies beachy, summer vibes. My husband and I spent a week in the Bahamas and took some great photos. I selected a few for this page that really summed up the feeling of the whole trip.

I started with some palm tree sunset paper from Craft Smith’s Summer Dream stack. Some neon teal paper from Recollection’s Spring Ink made a jumbo mat for my two smaller photos. Some Twilight Beach tape by Mind Wave was the perfect accent for this page, both in color and theme. I made some streamers with baker’s twine and K & Company’s Tags to Go. I don’t know if these are still in production, but if they are, I highly recommend them because I have had this batch for years and still have plenty left despite using them all the time.

This page was also made for the Color, Stories, Inspiration August challenge. I loved the summer theme and the color scheme really went well with the photos I had.
