This is the title page for our Honeymoon to Maui page. It has been almost 2 years! About time I got to work on it! This was created using a Page Maps sketch. Circles are HOT right now but I know several people struggle with them (Jodes *wink*). I love the way this LO turned out! The base is pp from HL, then the other two pp are from SU's afternoon tea. The vertical strip is torn and inked along the edge. The horizontal piece also has soft sky stitched ribbon along it. Instead of a picture cause I was having trouble picking one I used a map I tore out of one of the books we got there. I matted it on choc chip cardstock. After adhering it I faux stitched in a circle using a CM circle template to guide me. The flowers are along the stitching and nestled in with the two little pictures. They are inked using Wild Wasabi, Groovy Guava, Soft Sky and Close to Cocoa - in the centers are clear dew drops, skittles, baubles whatever they are called where you are from! The circle is groovy guava CS and on it I stamped the word MAUI in choc chip ink stamps are from an OLD company called Leaving Prints (out of business). I then hand wrote/doodled the rest of the title. TFL!!!

Hi Tessa - love this title page, though unlike fellow sister Cynthia can't say I love Maui as I've never been. You make it come to life though

Great page! I struggle with circles, too. You've used them well, tho!
ReplyDeletewhat a gorgeous page!!! just love it all... I wanna go too!!LOL
ReplyDeleteOh... I honeymooned there, too! Unfortunatly we lost all our pictures from the trip except a few of our rental car. Pretty bad, huh! This is a great way to do a page without too many pictures! It is very pretty! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDelete-another crafty Tessa!
