Cabo Scrapbook Page

I've been working on a series of scrapbook pages from our spring break vacation to Cabo San Lucas. Here's one that shows the highlights of our trip.
I used a photo I took of the ocean as the background then I used an overlay from the Not Just Solids pack by Elizabeth Blust to grunge it up so it wasn't "just" a photo. The journaling tag is a photo I took of the keychain at the hotel that I extracted then placed a photo and text on. The font is pea carlisle from fonts for peas and the alpha for cabo is from the firecracker collab kit at Girls gone Scrappy but I desaturated it to make it a little more neutral for the page.

If you want cool customized scrapbook pages but you don't have the time to make them yourself, contact me. You can view my scrapbook pricing on my website. I can create single pages or entire books for you.

A Different Perspective, Part 2

Last time I posted about shooting from above I was at the Rangers vs. Yankees baseball game and I said I should take my camera out when I'm in an airplane to try to see the star cut into the grass around the pitcher's mound at the Ballpark. Well, I didn't get to see that but I we did take a nice trip over downtown Fort Worth. It's a pretty cool photo. I feel like Google Earth! HA!
This is one I took while were were circling in a holding pattern waiting to land in San Francisco. I think it looks like a cool abstract tree. I might use it as an example in my class next fall.

In-N-Out Burger

Mmmm...I love me some In-N-Out Burger so whenever I get the chance I have one. Thursday's travel was pretty bad...7 1/2 hours on the plane most of it spent sitting on the tarmac in San Jose with a bunch of disgruntled passengers with no food through lunchtime. So, I was quite hungry when we finally landed in San Francisco and our first stop was at the In-N-Out for a double double and fries. Yum!

The Bridge

Yesterday we were driving into San Francisco to do a little sightseeing and much to my happiness when we got to the Golden Gate Bridge it was shrouded in fog. Ahh...the photo I've been waiting for my last three trip to San Francisco! It was pretty amazing to watch the fog move around the bridge. It doesn't just sit there, it's very active and the pictures are different every second. Some moments you can't even see the bridge and the next it's poking out from the top of the clouds.

First up is with the skyline of San Francisco in the background.
Next is the whole bridge through the fog. Enjoy!
If you want a print contact me. My prices are very reasonable!

Self Portrait #4

Self Portrait with sunglasses. While walking through the tourist trap souvenir shops along Fisherman's Wharf this rack of sunglasses caught my eye...and my reflection. I had to share.
