scrapbook page to share :: travel well
©twopeasinabucket.com. Click here for full layout and supplies.
I just wanted to share this page with you. It’s one of my most favourite photos of our entire journey and it was captured entirely by accident. I promise I didn’t follow monks around all day trying to catch them at the most photogenic moments of their day. No, I was taking pictures of a boy who happens to climb steep and wobbly staircases far, far quicker than I do and he just happened to be oblivious to the next few pedestrians on those stairs. When I had told him to go ahead he thought I was ridiculous, but this picture made me very thankful to have stayed at ground level just a few minutes longer.
You can see the full layout here, in the garden.
A few other things:
…The Garden Girls are hosting a special event called Snap and Scrap your Summer – it’s totally free and fun. There’s an interview with me here, and I got to talk about favourite summertime photo opportunities, things I’ve made and projects by other crafters that are currently inspiring me. I also got to post a challenge, and it’s all about capturing the details of summer in day to day. It’s open until next Monday and there’s a Two Peas prize for one lucky participant.
…Or there’s the new challenge for the UKS Scrap Factor contest – and it’s to find an old layout and return to those photos or that event and scrap it again in your current style. The Play Along side of the contest is open to anyone and there are prizes given each week for one page each in paper, hybrid and digital. That challenge is open until the third of July.
…Today is the last day to post a link to your page for the current sketch and perhaps be featured in tomorrow’s post. Which doesn’t include a giant photo, interestingly enough!
So you know… don’t let anyone say there aren’t enough scrapbooking challenges to keep you busy! (Kidding. Scrap as you love to scrap. Always.)

It’s a wonderful photo and I love the way you have put together a page to show it at its best.

Is it very wrong that instead of making me think of peace and tranquility, the stairs in that photo make me think of Kill Bill 2?!

This is a great site. The colors, photos, and video are very friendly and welcoming. I’ve only done very simple scrapbooks. The video I saw was so helpful.

I’d love to follow monks around, they’d have to stop and chat at some point. ;)

I’ve never been that good with scrap booking. Although what you hve done here is beautiful. I love the shot of the monks going up the stairs. You are right it is a very fitting quote. Thanks for sharing your work. I will stop by when I need some inspiration!
