vacation layout (for BBTB2)

Happy Monday!  Ready for a new week?  Me neither!  Massive infusions of diet Coke are going to be required to keep me functional!  Our BBTB2 challenge this week is to use a charm on a a project.  I picked the charms from the Life As A Beach cartridge for some summer themed layouts (I'm gonna pretend it is July instead of February…and also pretend I am basking in a warm sunny beachy place…darn, I'm back home already!).  I backed each charm with a circle cut from Plaintain Schoolbook to get some color contrast.  This is a two page layout, but my photo of the two pages side by side was blurry for some reason but you can see each individual page.  I strung up my charms on some twine just for fun.  Go check out the cool projects over at BBTB2 and see what the design team has made to inspire you!



Cricut:
Life as A Beach-charms cut at 2 1/2 inches, font cut at 1 1/4 inch
Paper-CTMH Seaside prints, CTMH solids
brown chalk ink

I love love this layout, you know I'm such a huge fan of all your layouts, but I really love how you used the charms on this one!! Great papers too as you always have. Thanks for making this challenge so much fun! Hugs, Brenda
