Memories Made in the Sand

I was looking through some of my vacation books today because I wanted to make a list of pages I need to make. I am not a chronological scrapbooker so I have a notebook with lists of pages I want to work on. I came across this set of pages for our Tahiti vacation.

These colors and this paper packet were perfect for my opening set of pages! It could also be that the page on the left ends up being my cover page, and the other the back page. I am not locked in to having them side by side.

I got curious as to whether or not I could get anymore of this paper. The paper pack is Smitten, and it was the special for Valentines some time ago – maybe 2021 or 2022? I am not sure, but I learned it is still available! So I thought I’d share a list of what I used to make this set of pages along with some dimensions so that you can create it if you want.

Cricut Cuts

1. Hibiscus (#MD6FC21): You need four at 2.5″ wide and sixteen at 2″ wide. The colors are Flamingo, Ballerina, Lemonade, and Green Apple.

2. Palm Tree (#43975): You need two at 4″ in height, and the colors are Green Apple and Nectarine. Now you need them facing opposite directions, so you will have flip one of them horizontally.

Layout Measurements

1. Lemonade: (2) 12 x 12 light side for bases, (2) 3.25 x 4.25 for photo mats on left page, and (2) 3.25″ squares for right page

2. White Daisy: (2) 11.25″ squares and (1) 3″ square journaling block

3. Capri: (2) 2.75″ x 5″ pieces with dovetails at one end and (2) 3.25″ squares

4. Capri Gingham: (2) 2.75″ x 5″ pieces with dovetails at one end and (4) 3.25″ squares
