Holiday Scrapping

For the first part of my holidays, I went to visit my parents' for 5 days and spent Christmas there.  Usually I would also visit some friends and do some catching up, but this year I decided to just be a homebody and stuck around the house.  Husband had no complaints.  During the five days, other than walking the dog and going out for dim sum once, I was either "Alien Hive"-ing on my tablet (damn, that game is addictive and impossible), or on Pinterest getting inspirations for scrapping and catching up with some scrapbooking.  A total of three layouts were completed.  I did almost finish another but due to limited supplies (and technology in the house), I had to save it for later until I get home.

Cambridge
I would consider this the last 'adventure' page in the England/Ireland scrapbook (now just missing the England title page... which I forgot, else I would have worked on that too).  I had a few good photos for it, but I think for this layout, it just goes well with one.


Paper: Simple Stories, Fancy Pants Design, and the plaid paper by...
Embellishments: Stickers, Snippets (Basic Grey)

Life's A Beach
Since I thought I was done my Europe 2010 page, I continued with my Hawaii 2012 page.  I went to a number of beaches in Hawaii, but I really didn't want to scrap them all (plus I didn't have enough photos for each of them).  A beach is a beach... sand, ocean, bare feet... Why not just put them all onto one page?!


Paper: Authentique
Embellishments: Stickers, Tab

Hawaii
After remembering I needed a title page for England, I did a title page for Hawaii.  This page was so fun.  It's also the one I liked the most out of the three.  Simple and bright.
