Here's another one...

...layout, that is. The one that had to sit overnight while I figured out what to do in that journaling area. Here's my page - more photos from our visit to the beach last Wednesday night...

materials: cardstock: American Crafts; patterned paper, die cuts: Pink Paislee;  metal pin: October Afternoon; flag: Pebbles; letters: Basic Grey; string: Divine Twine

Can you read that it says 'beach boy'? I was a little unsure about turning the one kid upside down to be the 'a'. Kind of makes me think of a reverse crucifixion for some reason. I've got the actual 'a' at the ready if you tell me it looks bad!

Here's a close up of the journaling area. The little kraft tag with the date covers a mistake - a bad stamp of the date right onto the tag. Hate when that happens! So, to make it look like it wasn't a mistake, I put the rest of the journaling on strips, too and that actually worked out ok.

Next up on the blog is a layout I made with some inspiration from Ella Publishing's new List It! Childhood Edition. Will share that one tomorrow along with a giveaway. See you then!
