get it scrapped!: outdoor outings

there are some great new articles up at get it scrapped! this week.  these two layout are featured in "ideas and angles for scrapbooking your outdoor travel and outings."  you know we do that lots with cub scouts.  in fact, all these photos have already been blogged.  it's nice to get them on layouts.  in the article i talk about how i love to scrapbook an event from several different angles.  in fact, i have three from this event.  you can see the third at easy scrapbook pages. 

i believe on this layout i was experimenting with my new tim holtz distress stains and inks.  i haven't quite mastered the blot, but it's fun playing.  i'm also still in love with the aqua and yellow combo.  think it'll carry over into fall?

the layout was from my july jbs mercantile kits and features lots of vintage ephemera from the antiquarian add-on.

this one i made for cha summer.  the latest jbs product is shipping now, so keep your eyes peeled for it at your favorite retailer.  the stamps will actually debut with jenni's october release.  i accidentally used them early.  oops!

i also have a back to school layout featured in "ideas for scrapbooking back to school photos."  be sure to check out the companion article, "scrapbooking themes quickstart: school images, sayings, and fonts."  i plan on working on g's back to school mini-album this weekend and there's a lot of great material in there that will be useful.

a couple other articles i've enjoyed this week:
"scrapbook page topics and designs inspired by infographics" (very inspiring indeed!)
"5 liftable ideas from 1 scrapbook page by leah farquharson" (great thoughts on the page canvas on this one)
