3rd page done!


Here is the 3rd page!  

PHOTO: This is an online picture of Southpark Mall that I burned onto a CD-R and took it to Walgreens 
and had it printed out for something like 60 cents. 

DOTS: The dots on the side are made by hand by a black Sharpie marker for journaling.

BOTTOM IMAGE: There are five pieces to this collage that are all cut from Real Simple magazine. The four corners of the collage are actually advertised rugs that were in the magazine. And to emphasize the partial chocolate theme to this page, I cut out (first with scissors) various chocolate from the magazine. Then touched it up with an X-Acto.

BOTTOM RIGHT IMAGES: The "X" and "O" are also from Real Simple magazine. Again I first used scissors, then used an X-Acto for touch-up. The "2nd" contains three different stickers to complete the 2, n, and d. 

STRAWBERRIES: The strawberries were designed to cling to cell phones as a decal. But I found these strawberries and knew I needed to use them for this page. 

Tour de Engagement: The 2nd place we went was at Southpark Mall in Strongsville, Ohio (a suburb of Cleveland). We walked around for a bit, and then walked into Godiva Chocolates (Chocolatier). We bought two chocolate covered strawberries that were connected at the tips by hardened milk chocolate. We later went out to the car to eat them; such a messy task!

I believe Tour de Engagement will be the title of this scrapbook; or at least this portion of it (depending on whether or not I include the wedding photos AND engagement photos in the same scrapbook.

4th page ideas are in the works!

Feel free to comment & asking questions!
