I Lied about being the Outdoors type!! A page from my Costa Rica travel journal! Alligator Bridge! Oregano DoubleClick Skittles Showcase Color!

Hello Crafty friends!

Today I worked on a project life card for my Costa Rica Scrapbook. When I initially put my book together I knew it had to be small because I was traveling with it so the majority of my book is made up of Project Life cards.  I then added things that I collected while on the trip, like dollies, napkins, maps and business cards. I just printed all my photos and will slowly be putting them into place. 

While in Costa Rica we visited Alligator bridge which was just that, a bridge you walked over with VERY low railings and beneath you on both sides... hundreds of alligators! This is a top spot for eco-tourism. 

 I added the hearts because I LOVED Costa Rica and all of my pages will have them!

This was the perfect set of stickers for this page: I lied about being the outdoors type!

I went to Micheal's and found the DCWV Nana's Nursery Stack for only $4.97. I vowed no more paper, but I told myself if I promise to actually use the paper then I could buy it. Well I bought it and using it! I decided to start making a 5X5 Baby girl album. This has the sweetest baby girl paper!
