This layout!!! That's what. We're having a crop today at
OSU. I was a little bit late starting, but the first challenge I decided to do was one from
Tricia to create a layout featuring ephemera. Something I have lots of. So I decided to create a layout using a postcard from our trip to Italy in 2003. I like to buy postcards when I know that we haven't been able to take the best photographs and I just scrap them instead. This layout is about the Arena in Verona - it is the largest, best preserved Roman arena that is left and they host live events there. There had been a concert the night before we visited and there were work crews dismantling the stange and seating while we were there - so I bought the postcard.

I also still had the tickets we purchased to enter the arena (8 years later and living in another country - I think I'm good!). Anyway, this is another layout created with my March counterfeit kit (my 6th). I also used some of the prize pack I won from
Bursts of Creativity that arrived in the mail this week (I'm going to blog about that a little later). Right, time to post this puppy and get working on my next challenge.....

OHHH great LO Kylie!
Well done. That is fabulous! That ephemera is so fun to look at.
Very nice. I like it.
This is lovely. Nicely done. This makes me remember that I have a LO with those Vegas Hooker trading cards...would that count? LOL! I know I know I need to come up with a new one.
Beautiful layout. When my DH and I went to Italy, Verona was out favorite city. thanks for bringing back some wonderful memories.

This is beautiful! I love the idea of using a postcard in place of a photo. And I am huge fan of ephemera.
i have so much memorabilia from over the years that it's always great to see others managing to incorporate it into their layouts so successfully - very inspiring. thanks! and i love that you have opened out the envelope and made a feature of the fastening - i have some of those and was wondering what to do with them.
Great layout! Love that you used a post card to capture the memory since you weren't able to snap a photo.
Great layout! I love the idea to use a postcard for those times when you didn't get the greatest photos!
Love your layout Kylie, think I will scraplift it for my ephemera page!! I really like how you layers all the little tid bits!
I like buying postcards for the same reason. Cool tickets and congrats on keeping them safe and using them :)
