Project Life Goes on Holiday

I took PL cards to France with me, as they don't take up much room and did most of this layout out there.

 

That is definitely my preferred way of working - I choose a kit (or three) for the month and then I can work on 1 or 2 cards as and when I have time. I print at home so I don't have to wait and do the whole month in one go.

I didn't take many embellishments with me though so I have only just finished off the spread.

Most of the cards are from the Family themed pack. I cut black and white labels and titles from the Midnight edition. And I also used one other-the first PL set I ever had, which I received as a blog gift.  Anyone know where these cards are from?

Most of my journaling is handwritten but I like the variety of a typed 'review' card and the Tim Holtz word stickers.

The 'Happy Place' die cut is by Dear Lizzy and I punched out the extra circles so the photo of our holiday home showed through then used the circles as tags

The name of the circus was handcut from a promotional flyer to layer over my photo.

I like the variety of portraits of my children with some scenery and close up shots. I often forget to take pictures of things like the yummy French croissants and our (shocking!) 10 Pin Bowling score.
