By the time all of you are reading this, I will be basking in the sun and surf on the Hood Canal in Western Puget Sound...I can't wait. I need a vacation, even if it's just a little mini weekend getaway. John and I are excited to finally get a chance to go swimming with our dog Drake! I bet he'll be so happy to have us in the water with him. A few friends might join us, there might be a new hot tub at the house, it's going to be heavenly!

Supplies:
Pattern Paper
Swank Labels- Printables
Clear Creations Tags and Phrases
Colorboard Stickers
Acrylic Stamps
Big Brads
Cardstock
Markers

I made this page with the new Making Memories Travel and Funky Vintage collections. I especially love the Postcard Pattern Paper and the Clear Creation books, they go great with any style or color...and the big frame idea was inspired by Jamie's Shaped Paper article...it's the perfect way to add interest to a simple page.

Journaling: How did I ever live without a beach house? Next week I'm leaving John to go to Chicago for work and it's been over 100 degrees at home this week...what better time for us to get away and relax by the water, just the two of us. I cannot wait for swim, sand, and sun...Vacation- Here we come!
