Scrapbook Layout: Explore/Antiqua

Another "one picture" page!  With the addition of a note from the cruise line, a "vacation" velum sticker, coordinating embellishments and a wooden title, I think it turned out okay.
I could have painted or inked this thin wooden title, but I thought it looked great as is.
Oh look...lots of pictures.  I still had my camera here...well I did until just after the lower right photo was taken.  Right in front of the catamaran was where the camera hit the water.  I was handing it off to hubby so we'll never know if he dropped it or I missed putting it into his hand!  Luckily the water didn't damage the memory chip or I would have really been sad.  (And no...months of drying out the camera did not bring it back to life.  So sad...I loved that little Sony.)
The border punch reminds me of waves and the blue vinyl letters were a perfect color match.

Love the calm colors you used on the "Explore" page. The raw wood word is the perfect accent!

The backing paper on your layout is gorgeous and shows the photo off perfectly. Love the way the word takes centre stage too. Thanks so much for joining us at Our Creative Corner this month. Anne x

Very elegant layout... I really like the inclusion of the letter from the cruise company, and I agree that the wooden Explore looks great as it is. Sorry to hear about your camera, but at least you have the photos of what looks like an amazing trip.

Thanks for playing along with us at Our Creative Corner.
