Off We Go!

I'm still in Devon today, with the first of three pages from a walk we did on Easter Sunday. I've chosen to do three single pages rather than a double as there were three distinct parts to the walk. The first was Fernworthy Reservoir, where we walked down one side and crossed the river below the dam.

I'd printed two 4x6 photos and went in search of a layout that wouldn't have me putting them together in a 8x6 block, which I do often and it gets repetitive. I hit upon Glitter Girl Adventure 59, where the photos are offset by the addition of a journalling card, and took it from there.

I had less journalling so went with patterned paper and a larger title on the left, while Shimelle's square icons became circles on my page.

On Meldon Hill

Three posts running for the same album and the same holiday! On Saturday afternoon we walked from our cottage to the town of Chagford, about three miles away, choosing a route that took us over Meldon Hill with its multitude of tors.

I printed six photos, five landscape 4x6s plus a smaller close-up, and went for a double page based on Shimelle Laine's 4x6 Photo Love class, but tweaked and updated.

Run Parke

Page two of our Easter holiday now, and we headed to Parke (near Bovey Tracey) on Saturday morning for parkrun. I have three photos, and I used a sketch from GoGoGetway's April cybercrop for my layout.

My photos are larger than those in the sketch and take most of the width of the page, so I moved both my embellishments and my title. I also added a journalling card below the photos to hold a few notes from the day.

All my 12x12 parkrun tourism pages have similar titles, being 'Run' followed by the event name.

Return to Devon

Sticking with my 2023 album, I've printed all the photos from our week in Devon last month and planned out 10 pages (counting doubles as two). I'll mostly be using Simple Stories Safe Travels but I only have nine 12x12 papers (plus the 6x8 pad, an ephemera pack and some enamel dots) so I'll be pulling in extra papers as I go, mostly for backgrounds. 

I've started at the beginning, with a single photo of our cottage and sketch #61 from Lisa Sikorski at Scrap a Sketch.

I kept pretty close to the sketch with the three paper strips, the filmstrip and a single landscape photo, but  I dropped the frame around the edge and moved the title. I just have one small embellishment cluster, but it does contains a couple of stickers from packs that I've pulled out to stash-bust.
