Half Moon Bay

Here's just a simple page for today. I am working my way to finishing 2009 (even though I've done bits of 2010 already since I decided that chronological just wasn't working for me anymore) right now. This was our trip to Half Moon Bay for the first time. It's only 30 minutes away from our house so that means so is the coast, but it took us until November of that year to finally go. We've since been there another time for a yummy seafood dinner when my mom came to visit.


Here's the sketch:




I followed a PageMaps sketch that I found in my great search of some challenges to do. This one wasn't attached to a challenge but I thought the photos fit too well not to try it out. Plus, it's just a fun little sketch! I have decided that I'm not one for big embellishments, but I did incorporate a little raffia ribbon along the bottom. And because I don't have the notebook paper border punch, I just used some paper that was around (ah, yes, being a student has helped in scrapbooking!). I distressed it with some Antique Linen distress ink as well.

Well, that's all for now. Thanks for stopping by!

I like the page layout and how it worked so well with your pictures. The note book paper was so fitting with the the layout of the page. Great job.
