This is a fun challenge to re-cap the best moments of summer.
We are focusing on all of the activities that are getting you outside this summer. Show us what you have scrapbooked, carded up, or artified around sports, fishing, camping, kite flying, hiking, boating, sandcastles, and fireworks!
Leading the group is Claudia, while she reminisces about time at the beach.

Okay, okay...I may have stretched this...but collecting shells is a kind of sport too, right? Especially when it is too hot to play tennis. So here is my "& more" tag with faux shells I have made using the gorgeous "Shocked" stamp from Emerald Creek!

I love this challenge because outdoor activities are probably my favourite part of summer! I could have chosen from any number of subjects, but because I have some new and fun camping photos, I just had to scrap one of those. It was fun to also challenge myself to use the Emerald Creek products on a 12x12 scrapbook layout. I hope you can check out my process video!

I am not normally an outdoorsy person...but anything to do with the beach will get me outdoors and when my kids were younger we did a lot of camping!! Definitely some great memories from the only outdoorsy stuff I do. LOL!

Summertime outdoor activities, especially in Canada with its' coastlines and waterways, more often than not have some component of water to them. Whether it be swimming, boating/canoeing/kayaking, or fishing... surf and sand likely play a part, thus I created a card reflective of that. I personally love that calming feeling water brings and the feel of sand between my toes. If you look carefully along the exposed distress crinkled kraft paper, you will see what looks like sand but is in fact Antique Gold embossing powder that has been adhered and slightly heat activated but not set. It has an awesome faux sand look and texture. Adding a compass for adventure and a few aqua friends round out my scene.
