Design: Travel Printable

I have been scrapbooking up a storm the past week. I am so far behind! There were several pages that I had almost completed, but I was missing the title or some finishing touches. I finally knocked out a bunch today and I am feeling somewhat accomplished.

One page that I needed to finish up was from our Alaskan cruise. Yes, that was almost two years ago. I know to some it might seem normal to be that far behind. But for me and my passion for scrapbooking, this is a huge deal! I was looking for something to summarize the page and trip. Originally I was thinking about doing something like the Alaska state outline and a title mentioning Charles' 30th birthday. Then I had an idea to incorporate a quote related to traveling. There are so many amazing quotes out there. I am truly inspired when I read them. It was hard to choose the best one for this trip, but I ended up using a Jack Kerouac quote that I found on Pinterest.

This printable could be customized with any state or country. Interested in your own custom version? Let me know and I'll be happy to assist!

Design: Favorite Things Party

I enjoy a bit of graphic design (is that the correct term?) by creating flyers for events and parties. A recent flyer I was asked to make is for a Favorite Things Party. Side note: if you have never been to one of these types of parties, they are a lot of fun!

Whenever I make flyers, I search Google images for ideas. Then I have fun re-creating images I find on there. Since all I have to work with is Microsoft Publisher, I am not always able to do all the fun things I could probably do with other programs. But it was free and I am familiar with it.

For the Favorite Things flyer, I saw one very similar on Google, but with different colors and fonts. I love fonts and have downloaded countless ones over the years. It is fun to experiment and try out different options together.

For this flyer, I used the following fonts:
Meganhand
Playdate
Romance Fatal Serif
