I'll Meet You Here

I've been working on a wedding scrapbook page for my daughter-in-law Ashley and finally finished one today.  This page is about the day they shopped for their wedding venue.  They really only had to look at a couple places before Ashley KNEW this was the right place.  Andy...just nodded his head and said he liked it which was the right answer!
I used a layered template from Sweet Shoppe Designs for the design using Photoshop Elements which gave me the size of each element, then I laid it all out on my cameo and printed the pictures and all of the elements on my machine.  I was even able to add the digital patterned paper to the shapes before I printed and cut them.  I had some help from my friend Joyce of Cards by the Sea with the title, but ended up having this title pop into my head at the last minute.  I plan to use Joyce's title ideas for later in the book.  Ashley hasn't seen the page, but I showed her the pictures that were going to be used and she wrote up a journal entry of her thoughts from that day.  So, Page 3 done...17 more to go!

Sounds like Andy is a smart guy already! I cant help but laugh at how interested he looks. Such a guy!
Love this page layout and the bright purple color! You even managed to get a popular arrow on you page. This is amazing I bet Ashley will love having this to look back on. Looks like you are having some fun with the Cameo!
