I was sent the journey accessory set to work with which is a great collection for vacations and all things that GO! My daughters and I are heading back to the mainland in a few weeks to visit with family so I decided to use the templates to make a countdown for my girls to keep track of how much longer till we leave.
For my next project I really wanted to create a mini album but was at a bit of a loss on where to start. After looking through the templates for what seemed liked forever I noticed that the suitcase sort of looked like a camera. So I totally decided to just go for it.
I did end up trimming the feet off the suitcase because it gave it more of the look that I was going for.

I really like that you used the templates in other ways. The suitcase looks great as a camera and a wonderful mini album. Also, the count down for your daughters is such a good idea. Thanks for all the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteThe count down idea is really great. I'm sure the kids enjoyed it. I like how you created the mini album with the template too. Very unique.
