I'm on my final port now for our Mediterranean cruise last year. That's Palma in Majorca; it was the seventh of the eight that we visited, but I haven't been scrapbooking them in order.
Since I am approaching the end now, some of my page designs have been driven by the shapes and sizes of the scraps I have left (and I've had to pull in a couple of extra background sheets).
(The numbers are my page count for the year. I count doubles as two pages.)
51. Palma
Every port has a sub-title page, which divides my album into sections. I used lots of leftover paper strips here, layered in a row behind a single 4x6 photo of the view from our ship.
52 & 53. Caves of Drach
We did our only organised tour of the cruise in Majorca, a coach trip to the Caves of Drach on the other side of the island. We took loads of photos which I cut down to just five as I didn't want to go any smaller than 4x6, and I scraplifted an older page from Lisbon.
Page design here was driven by that large yellow scrap, the perfect size to mat my two photos and leave a space for my title. The Cathedral is known as Le Seu, but I also have it's full name on a label. I think it's the first black title in this album but that felt like the right colour to use here. The camera print might also be new; it's been in the kit since the beginning but I don't remember using it before. I will have to see if I can add a few pieces elsewhere when I review the album.
55. Palau Reial de l'Almudaina
I scraplifted Shimelle for this page, following a YouTube live from last month and using up some 12" strips from my album kit. Her page used portrait photos and mine are landscape so I moved my title to run up the side of the photo block so that I still had the space beneath it for journalling.
56. Just Wander
My final page from Palma, with an assortment of photos which give a taste of the old town, but none of them merit a whole page. The WANDER word comes from an older set of travel-themed Thickers that I am trying to use up.
