Seaside Reflections: Echo Park Paper

My family takes an annual trip to the beach each April and we have almost always been blessed with great weather.  Not swimming-in-the-ocean warm, but usually sunny enough to stick our toes in. 


On this particular day, I was able to capture Cory's refection as he tested the ocean's temperature. Echo Park Paper's collection, A Perfect Summer, was, well, perfect for this photo. I was so happy to find the collection as part of the new June kit at My Creative Scrapbook. 



At the top of the page, I hung a little clothesline sticker. It fills the space nicely and plays on the beach theme. 



I wanted my title at the bottom to anchor the layout, but thought the letter stickers were a little too light for that task. It was an easy fix to re-color them using an alcohol-based marker. 



The aquamarine marker gave the letters more pop.  

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
