Make a Very Personal Gift

Al Hikes BecauseI took on a Scrap Girls challenge to scraplift one of designer Paula Wright's Layouts. I chose one titled "I Scrap Because" and twisted the title to "Al Hikes Because."

I had just received 25 photos from our friend Al of his recent hike in Temperance State Park, Minnesota. I sent back this gift memento of his hike.


Read how I created the Al Hikes Because scrapbook layout.

    This is really nice. I love the bit of tartan showing through. Your journaling is delightful.

  6. Thanks Cyndi. That means a lot coming from you.

    I created the background paper from one of Al's photos using techniques I learned on Layers Upon Layers.
