Just posting the next two days in my little album... the prompts for yesterday and today haven't been posted yet (life gets in the way, right?) so I just made up more of my own.
For yesterday, I decided to use the envelope as a way to do a more personal entry so I did, "I love someone who helped me."
Here's the front of the envelope:
Lots of goodies I've had on hand forever... I got that saying card in a kit a long time ago (Scarlet Lime, maybe?) an old Meri Meri flocked heart wrapped up with some twine, and a few strips cut from some KI Memories lace paper. The woodgrain is actually the back of an insert I got in a Studio Calico kit that I saved for something just like this :)
And the other side of the envelope:
The hearts are an old Dawn Houser Inkadinkadoo stamp I've had for years and totally love. I colored a bit with my Pan Pastels - I like the smudgy look of them. Another scrap of SC paper and some very old Autumn Leaves rubons that still went on like butter! You can see the entry tucked inside - a photo and a little decoration on one side, typed journaling on the other.
And adding today's layout:
I decided to use the prompt, "something I love to do." TRAVEL!!!
I picked out one photo of me in each of the 6 countries I visited last year. Last year was an AMAZING year. And I saw some awesome stuff.
The photos are (left to right, top to bottom): Spain, overlooking Toledo, at the Parthenon in Athens, at the Dolmabace Palace on the banks of the Bosphorous Strait in Istanbul, In front of the Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi, out in the desert in Dubai, and at Machu Picchu in Peru.
Those trips were so amazing that I could have kept living out of a suitcase indefinitely. If only I didn't need to work to pay for it... I'd just get on one of those boats that cruises the world for 8 months and never stop. Well, as long as I had an anti-sea sick patch or some good meds. lol.
