Been scrappin

It was so nice to spend the day today with my bestest scrappy friend!! We popped a bottle of toffee apple soda, and a packet of mini mars bars and got to work together...

I have been on a mega mission to get this holiday album finished  - photos from a Thai tour we did last year, run by my amazing sister at Nukzu Thai tours.
In my sketch searching I came across a few that I was very keen to do!

I found two fantastic sketches over at Scrapmuch -  a single page sketch for the title page, and a double:

And my versions....



The title page shows us leaving on our big adventure, and the double shows the temple our donations are assisting to build. We visited the (temporary) temple and received blessings from the monks while the middle pictures show us giving the donations and the half finished building... It was such an amazing experience!

My final page was based this months double sketch from Pagemaps - this one shows the fantastic Thai cultural show in the village. The entire village turned up and set up food stalls down the street. All the westerners were treated like royalty, and everyone was vying for a conversation or to touch hands with us - so this what celebrity feels like!!!

I am entering this one into the anything goes challenge over at clique kits!! Make sure you link up.... https://cliquekits.wordpress.com/2015/08/08/clique-kits-august-challenge/
