Design team member Christa Paustenbaugh used a grid design on this layout to showcase photos from her family’s summer adventures.  Here’s what Christa had to say … “To say we had a summer packed with fun is a huge understatement!  We traveled all over the place to see family and enjoy some rest and relaxation.  I wanted to put several photos of the various places we had gone on the layout, so I cropped them to 2.5″ x 2.5″ and made a grid.  To make them stand out a bit from the bright Happy Go Lucky papers I used foam adhesive to give them a little oomph.  I added a few other embellishments that were bright and summery to me to go along with our happy summer and happy page!”

Design team member Deena Wuest created this bold and graphic layout to highlight what she’s been up to this summer.  Here’s what Deena had to say … “Short on time but want to capture the highlights of your summer? Create a quick and easy layout with list journaling! Start your layout with an open ended question and simply list out your answers. Or reverse the process as I did here! Create a simple grid design, interject a fun border sticker and adhere a couple of dimensional flowers for a fast and fun summer synopsis!”

Design team member Kryssi Ng created this layout to document several highlights from her family’s summer roadtrip adventures.  Here’s what Kryssi had to say … “I decided to create a clean and simple layout going with a more graphic. I love all the neutral tone sin The Mr. & Mrs. collection.  They are so perfect for background when you’re looking for a little oomph in lieu of a solid color.  I went for a little playfulness by adding that star paper from Ever After.  To top it off, I used one fun flower chipboard from the Happy Go Lucky line that perfectly matched my color scheme.  Elegance meets playful meets fun.  I love that.”

Design team member Ginger Williams created this colorful layout to document how her boys entertained themselves this summer.  Here’s what Ginger had to say … “I was very excited when I got this topic for my assignment this week. We had a fabulous summer and did lots of fun things and went to a couple of very cool places. The hardest part of this assignment was picking just one thing to scrapbook. After sorting through lots of photos I decided I wanted to scrapbook one of our “boredom buster days.” On these days we tried to find something unusual to do together at home. On this day we decided to make toys out of a package of red plastic cups. They become building blocks for castles, pyramids, forts, and a lot of fun and laughter that day! It was one of my favorite days this summer!”

This photo is the perfect expression of the fun we had the past three months. I used a folding technique I saw on Pinterest to highlight my journaling, as well as show off both sides of the “Happy Go Lucky” patterned paper. Do you have a photo that encapsulates your summer? Try making a list of some of the fun things you did with your family and scrap them together!”
