Here is the sketch the layout is inspired by




and here is what i came up with



The Basic Grey Lauderdale paper was a little bright and loud for my liking because i wanted the pics to show well. I still liked the pattern because it fit the beach theme for Hawaii. So, to solve this problem i covered up the background with a sheet of light green vellum. I cut out a few papers from a second sheet to bring just a bit of the bright colors into the layout.

That is it for today. Thanks again for stopping by!
