simple scrapper: june blog hop & giveway

 



Bloghop-2013


When I received they sketches for June, I was traveling. In
my motor home.


And since the layouts were due before I returned home, I was
forced to scrap in the motor home! It actually was very doable. Jennifer has
talked about making a little kit before you sit down to scrap. Well that’s kinda
what I did. I subscribe to a kit club. So I brought that kit along with some
other “basic” product to scrap.


 


And as always I love, loved this months sketches. They were particularly
easy to work with since I was limited on product.


Yes this is me! We went to the Cayman
Islands when I was about 6. My parents can’t remember what year we actually
went. This is by far one of my all time favorite photos of myself. We were at a
sea turtle farm/aquarium? It was right on the beach. They had all these big
pools of turtles, I guess we were aloud to hold them, cause there I am holding one! I also remember an incubator, with
all the eggs. I wanted to see a little turtle hatch so badly. My favorite story
from that trip is, my mom bought post cards from the gift shop. On the post
card there was a little blonde girl and boy playing with the turtles on the
sand {the turtles were just hatched and trying to make it into the ocean}. You
could only see the back of the children. My younger cousin swore it was my
neighbor and I. Any ways. I took this photo of the “original” photo with my
camera. This is an instagram print from social print studio

Do you know the legend? Well as I have
heard you cant buy a Buddha for yourself… Nope it can only bring you good luck
if someone gives it to you! So my aunt Diane gave me one for Christmas last
year. And that is the legend of the Buddha!

And for my story starter. This month’s story starter was
about your childhood/children and or home. I have lived on the same street my
whole life. I made a big move 13 years ago. Yep I moved across the street. None
of the prompts really fit me, but I had just gone on a historic house tour in
the small town I live in. So I wrote and scrapped about that.
