Scrap Your Summer Bucket List with Tonya

Good Monday morning! Tonya here today to share a layout that I made with the idea of a summer bucket list in mind. Instead of creating a large list of things we wanted to do all summer, I decided to create a smaller bucket list.

Every year, the day after school gets out, my husband takes our three older boys and goes with my father in law to North Dakota. That leaves my daughter and I home alone for about 10 days (I know, POOR ME ;) ) The day the boys took off we sat down and made a bucket list of all of the things that she wanted to do while they were away.

Kate & Co.-Cambridge Court made this such a  super easy layout to put together.

Supplies: Find Your Wings and Fly-Up and Away: Washi Tape, Alpha & Word Stickers  Kate & Company-Cambridge Court:  Spring Showers Paper, Bright Florals Paper, Medallion Paper, Watercolor Paper,

Mini Flowers Paper, Striking Paper, Sticker Accessories, Chipboard Accessories, Enamel Dots, Layered Stickers, Stamps

I started with some washi tape from Find Your Wings and Fly-Up and Away and created a border to frame all of my photos and elements.

I had to do a little altering for the chip board file tab in the above photo. The original piece of chipboard  was meant for a date, but it had a space for the month, day and date. Since our photos spanned over a weeklong period I just wanted to document the month and year.

What I discovered was that the file tab stickers on the sticker sheet were the exact same shape and size as the ones on the chip board sheet. Sooo…I just took the sticker that matched what I needed and put it on top of the chip board. That way I got to keep the dimension of the chipboard and have the date the way that I wanted it.

I didn't have much room for journaling so I opted to add my journaling around the outer edges of my washi frame. The numbers in my journaling match the numbers that I placed on the photos.

Do any of you have a summer bucket list? I usually am not one to use this many photos on a layout, but found that a bucket list was the perfect way to incorporate a large number of pictures. We'd love to see your bucket list layouts!
