Scrap Map Saturday ~ Memories

My latest entry for Scrap Map Saturday at Creative Craft World.


This is Melman back in November when we went to London to meet up with Susi and Maria. We went on the London Eye. I nearly cut into a gorgeous sheet of October Afternoon - Thrift Shop for this, but then I remembered that I had a map of London that I'd saved for scrapping purposes. So I glued the map to some cardstock to stiffen it up, making sure the South Bank was exposed so I could point to the London Eye.

This week we had to add flowers. Not the most floral layout in the world, so I punched some flowers from the road names on the back of the map.

When I was making the layout I forgot what day we'd been to London and meant to go back and fix that before taking the photo, I see now that I forgot!

Road Trip ... there's still more!

A couple of pieces of what I call "Jo's Paper" because it came from her stash! I just had to have these two sheets, one of them with old American cars on and the other which was mainly a map of America with various bits of ephemera printed up one side. That sheet was just crying out to be chopped up and reassembled.

So that's what I did! I really should've taken a 'before' picture of the paper before I attacked it, but I forgot.

The photo isn't terribly clear, but I'm building a small stone cairn by the side of the road on the way into the Valley of Fire. Here's the cairn, I scrapped it as part of my Believe Mini Album:


The map tab came from my Teamie Sue, so thanks to both Jo and Sue for helping me to make this layout! :)

Road Trip... again!

Last week's challenge at UKS. I did get it done on time, I just didn't upload it to my Blog on time.
