Scrapbook Sketch Challenge

I’ve been having a lot of fun playing in sketch challenges and thought I would try a new one. I have been working on my scrapbook from our January 2012 cruise, and this just fit perfectly with the theme.  I love all the elements of this sketch!!

Here is the sketch:

I started with a Bamboo Cardstock base, and went straight to my Surf’s Up Paper Packet and Surf’s Up Assortment! Perfect for the beach theme!!!

I was excited to see the camera embellishment on the sketch because the new Cricut® Artbooking Cartridge has this very embellishment on it! I also used the Artbooking Cartridge to cut the arrow embellishments (which are so popular right now), the alphabet font for my title, and the scallop border at the top of the page.

This was such a fun sketch and I am really happy with the end result!! My scrapbook page is linked to the Sketch ~N~Scrap blog so head on over and check it out!!
