Traveler's Notebook: July 2018

Today I'm sharing the July spread in my 2018 Highlights traveler's notebook. Here's a look at my process. You can scroll down to see detail photos and read more about the project.


The highlight of my July was hands-down my little brother's wedding. He got married at a private campground in the mountains of Colorado. It was beautiful!


Since it was an outdoors, camping wedding, we originally thought we would drive from Indiana with the dogs, but as the date drew closer it just didn't look like we'd be able to get away long enough to make the drive worthwhile. So we found a dog-sitter and flew instead. Best. Decision. Ever.


Despite all of the craziness surrounding the wedding (last minute preparations, power failures, and just general chaos), Jesse and I had a really wonderful time just the two of us.


Of course the wedding itself was beautiful too. I plan to eventually do a mini album of the entire trip, but for now, I wanted to get this memory captured.

For the layout, I used a bunch of random bits from my stash. The papers are from a super old Pebbles collection called Lakeside. The die cuts are from Gone Camping by Imaginisce. The title alpha is from the Amy Tangerine Shine On collection. 


I also added some pieces from previous Citrus Twist kits, a scrap of Studio Calico vellum, and some little watercolor trees I painted and cut out by hand. Overall, it's a pretty simple layout, but I'm really happy with the way it turned out.

Happy Crafting!
