Hawaii Vacation Layout

Greetings Everyone!  This is Cindy of Scrap-obsessed Blog . Happy September and the last holiday weekend of the summer. I hope everyone is having a nice three day weekend. I'm hoping to spend some quality time in my craft room at least two out of the three days I have off work. I'm not ready for summer to end. There are still so many things I want to do while the weather is still warm. One thing I would love to do is go on vacation to Hawaii. Unfortunately I will have to wait until January. Until then I can have fun preparing for it though.

My layout today was made using three different Cricut Cartridges.


For the title of my layout and for the airplane in the clouds I used the Cricut Circle Exclusive cartridge Something to Remember. They were both cut at 4" except for the word Hawaii. That was cut at 1 1/2".



The green scallops on the top and bottom of the pages were made using the Art Philosophy cartridge, cut at 1/2". I used my Gypsy to weld 4 of them together to get the 12" long size that I needed.


The hibiscus flower was cut at 1 3/4" from the Life's a Beach cartridge. The photo mat on the left side will hold a 5x7 photo and the mat on the right side will hold a 4x6 photo.

I hope you've enjoyed my project today. Other Hawaii pages and projects will be posted to my blog as I prepare for my first big vacation. I have a feeling I'll be needing a lot of layouts! Thanks for looking. Cindy
