Glad you came to see another convention display sample parade project. Today we continue with the You're Amazing stamp set. I decided to scrap some of the pictures I took of the boys on our trip to Washington D.C last year for this page. I loved the play on the word monumental since all of the pictures are of different monuments we visited while in D.C. I mean really, it is monumental that no tickets are needed. There are a lot of FREE things to see while visiting our nation's capital.
This page a a bit of a challenge for me to design because let me tell you the word monumental is a BIG word. At first I wanted to use the awesome new alphabet dies but guess what, the word was just too monumental to fit on a 12 x 12 page. So I needed to check out my alphabet stamps because I refused to change my title. It had to be that and that's all there was to it. (yes, my stubborn side seriously came out) Plus I wanted to use a lot of pictures that couldn't be cut down too much so I wasn't left with much space. See, I told you it challenged me.
It was great seeing this sample on the boards at convention. I got to see my boys everyday. I felt like they were with me in Utah afterall. I think because of this, I wasn't homesick at all. How could I be, when I got to see my boys everyday?
See the little tickets between the pictures? They are from the You're Amazing set. And the big tickets below that are part of the title are from the wheel. I just wheeled them on scrap paper and then cut them apart to use them in my title. This was another project that I was very proud of. I'm more than sure it had nothing to do with my biased of my precious sons.
