What's Your Summer Blog Hop ~ Pool Party Scrapbook Pages

Welcome to the What's your Summer Blog Hop hosted by Ms. Ashley at My Scrappin' Palace.  Thank you Ashley for inviting me to hop along today. :)

If you are following the hop you should have arrived from my super talented friend Ms. Momo's blog.  Wow -- what a hard act to follow.  :)


Today's project's are all about summer and our favorite things to do.  


-----
My sister Tina has a beautiful backyard pool and we get together frequently to hang out by the their pool, grill up some burgers and watch the kids swim or play a game of volleyball in the pool -- in fact it's our favorite thing to do during the summer.  
I created this layout for some of our summer pictures.  
Simple but fun!  


I used the Seasonal cartridge Luau for the images. 
 Click HERE to see the images.
  


I adhered the ribbon on the back side of each photo mat, loosely tying a knot around the front.  I didn't adhere the ribbon down in the front as I will need this space to slip my picture in.  



I used my white gel pen on the palm tree and brown marker for extra doodling around all of the  photo mats and images.

The sun is cut at 4 inches

Pool Party is cut at 7" fit to length -- I used my Copic markers to color the drink glass, straw and fruit on the cup.  There is not a shadow for Pool Party so I created my own using blue card stock and cutting around for a shadow effect.  




Now hop on over to the super talented Tanya's blog to continue with the hop.
Thanks for stopping by and have a SUPER day!


Come back tomorrow as I will have another project tutorial for you.
