April Pinterest Challenge-- Busch Gardens Scrapbook Pages

It's time for another Pinterest Challenge!  For this month's challenge I chose to use a Pinterest pin to give me some layout ideas for a few scrapbooking pages. I'm still working on our Florida vacation from the fall of 2017 and decided to just focus on the Busch Garden's pages I wanted to create.



In case you've missed the past few months of challenges:
 we made some homemade marshmallows in January
some cheesy chicken chowder in February
 creamy noodle turkey casserole in March.

I used this pin to guide my Busch Gardens scrapbook page.  When I clicked through to the main page I found so many more great ideas that I ended up using a few of them to complete all three pages!

Each time I started by picking out my background paper and the accent colors or designs I wanted to use. 


Once I had my papers where I wanted them, I cropped and mounted my photos then added them to the page.


Then I added in all the finishing touches like the page title, journaling, and little accents.


Here's my second page.


My third and final page.



Now, let's see what the other hosts have created ⇓⇓

  1. How cool! I love the pages you created. I use to scrap book all the time and stopped for some reason. You just made me want to pick that hobby up again. Thanks for sharing.

  2. What a great idea for a Pinterest Challenge. I used to use scrapbook sketches all the time, but have moved to mostly pocket pages/Project Life in the past few years. I might just have to pull a few out and add some full 12x12s for a few special events. Your pages look great!

  4. I have always sort of wanted to do scrap booking but thought it might take a lot of time. Your pictures make it look so worth the time. Saving those memories for the next generation is so worth it.

  7. Your pages are beautiful! I used to do a lot of scrapbooking, but my poor teenager's last pages were probably when he was about 4! I need to get back into it!

    1. Aw, thank you! I started scrapbooking when my boys were quite little and as much as I kept walking away to take breaks from it I did end up going back time after time because it is such a fun way to remember their childhood.

    1. I was starting to miss them too so I decided to take it back up but only so long as it remained fun. I had quit because I was feeling so pressured to scrapbook every life event...

  13. High five. nice to meet another scrapper. I worked on pages today from a trip we took in October 2017. I don't think I will ever get caught up! Your pages look lovely and I like the way you showed us, step-by-step, how you put it all together. I use Pinterest a lot for layout ideas. My sister and I Skype together and scrap at the same time. Fun.

  14. Pictures seem so much nicer and fun to look at on pretty pages. Yours turned out lovely. I haven't made scrap book pages in forever. I did an entire book for my first born and a partial of my second, but I totally slacked off on the other two...lol. I should get back into it :-)
