"VAYCAY" Scrapbooking your vacation memories with Nathalie


Hello CTK friends and fans!
Nathalie with you today bringing you a project using this month's gorgeous  LEMON DROP scrapbooking and Embellishment Kits.

  When Trina shared with us what will be included in the LEMON DROP  kit, I was so excited to receive it (and probably purchased all the add-ons) since i have a very large number of vacation pictures yet to be documented.  But before, I  continue on, let me show you what i created for this post:




The inspiration for this page was the color contrast between the Scenic View paper (from the Here and There collection from Crate Paper) and the rose gold  tones in the ephemera both included in the main kit.   So i decided to create a rather monochromatic simple look for this page that ensure the picture pops.

The background of this page was created using a bit of acrylic pain (Vicki Boutin) to match the color of the ephemera.   Them to replicate the train rail, a bit of texture paste (Ranger) was used on top of the acrylic paint.   The contrast in texture and color make all the pieces of ephemera and layers pop  behind the picture.







The Lemon Drop kits are  probably one of my favorites, yet!  It was so easy to combine pieces from them to add sentiments and details around the page.  Plus the stamp -included in the kit- is perfect to give a bit more details to the page.   My final touch was creating the little fold to the page, and adding the flair that serves as the title for this page!   Here is a video that showcases how the page came together:




I love how this page turned out!  All the elements in the page work harmoniously to document one of our vacation memories ( about 5000 more to go!!!).   Stop by the Citrus Twist Kits store to check the kits (if you are not a subscriber)  you will love them!!!    Remember, I am always a comment away if you have questions on how this came together.

XO

Nathalie
