See the ship?

This is one of the few "staged" photos I have ever taken. I had a "scrapbook vision" and I told my son where to point and where to stand. He cooperated so well, the photos even look spontaneous!
For this page I used BoBunny papers (Blueberry Stripe and Paradise Surf) and Rub-Ons (Imagine). Other: Jillibean Soup alpha stickers (Hearty Barley), Cosmo Cricket chipboard alphas (Red Robin), Queen and Co. pearls, Creative Impressions White Web trim, unknown white cardstock and lace trim. I rubbed a bit of ranger distress ink (Antique Linen) on the white alphas to get them to match the chipboard ones a little more. This LO was inspired by Ann Seleshanko's sketch #21-12 over at S:CY:
As you can see, I flipped the sketch sideways and added a smaller photo where the title/journaling was supposed to go.

Thanks for stopping by!
