All aboard the Mayflower


Another layout today and a much simpler design. I love the variety of layouts you can create with scrapbooking and if you have never tried it I urge you to give it a try. The photograph is of a replica of the Mayflower which is in Plymouth, New England. Of course this is where the Pilgrims landed after setting sail from England. 

The paper is DCWV and just perfect for this layout. The tag is Craftwork Cards and the lovely ribbon and striped buttons are from Crafty Ribbons. I also used a Go Kreate seagull die, Tim Holtz word stickers and words and journal cards from Bo Bunny and Papermania.
