Now let me show you how I made my layout!!

We went to my brother's lake house for my niece Jenna's 12th birthday a couple of weeks ago.  It was the first time we have been to the lake this year as we are a baseball family and have limited free weekends!!

We had fun in the boat, in the water and in the sun!!!

I used my Cameo and images from the Silhouette Online store to create my layout.  I started out with a frame shape for a 12x12 layout, Hello Sunshine title, shovel, pail, sand and a sun.

I cut the Hello Sunshine out of white cardstock.

I cut the frame out of Quick Quotes bright paper (love this paper).

I cut the sun out of yellow patterned paper from Recollections.

My youngest was playing in the sand with Jenna's 2 year old cousin.  They were building sand castles.  I had an empty square and decided to fill it with sand, shovel and pail set from the online store and cut them out of cardstock.

Before I took the tan cardstock off my mat, I inked it to look like sand.

I put the sand castle together and adhered it to my layout.  I did not tuck it behind the window opening as we all know sand is messy!!!

I put the sun in one of the windows along with some of the best photos from our day at the lake!!
