Epic Days deserve to be recorded and to have their memories kept alive. The best way I find is to choose photographs that reflect the essence of the days and preserve these memories through a scrapbook page.
Todays project is a keepsake from a weekend in Devon we took back in June - read more about our travels here!
I've used Epic Day designer series paper and just love the blues, greys, browns that this particular design affords me - all seascape tones.
I've used a mixture of materials to accent the photogrpah including ribbon, lace, stickers, brads, designer series paper, washi tape, stamps & the Epic Day/This & That rotary stamp.
The papers in the above photograph are the now retired Fan Fair paper but I love(d) it so much I couldn't bear not to use it!
The feathers are a tribute to the feather collecting the girls did whilst on the beach.
