Look Look Look!!!

It seems like lately when I get my pictures back, I get 10 shots of the backs of people's heads for every 1 smiling face shot. This family trip to the aquarium was no exception. I will do a regular, 2-page layout documenting our day trip but I also wanted to point out the "look at this, look at that" shots too. I love the shots of Nico with his grandparents and even the baby of the family's fascination with the aquarium.

Most of the paper I used are from Imaginisce's Splash Dance line. I like how whimsical and colorful it is! All of the stickers and glitter letters are old Doodlebug stuff I had. I also used a Hambly overlay on top of the "word" paper. It reminded me of looking through portholes and I thought it went perfectly with the aquatic theme.
The seaweed border is my favorite part of the layout. I freehand cut strips of different green papers and glued them to the back of the white strip of paper. I then gently bent and roughed up some of the edges for texture and added some hidden fish. This was a fun layout to make.
Thanks for taking a peek!
