Sail Away

I found your journaling very interesting to read. Lovely page to tell the story. My question is.... did they find life on the island what they dreamed it to be? Well done working with this challenge. I like the stitching on top of the photos.

I think they must have. They returned to mainland Australia for about two years and then went to live in Papua New Guinea. They stayed there for 20 years and it's where we kids grew up.

I love the journaling that is blended into the page. What a lovely layout.

Lovely Eden! Beautiful blending and I like the stitching bring the focus to those special photos. I really enjoyed your journaling and like how it goes around the page. Wonderfully creative work!

Very cool page. I love the texture of it all and the zig zag stitch on the tilted photos is very creative!

This looks very nice. The soft colors are perfect for the b&w. Such interesting journaling, too. I like how your background came out - and the heart-shaped text is a neat touch.

I love the romantic and tropical look of your page! You have the best photos!! Great blending, of course, and perfect embellies for the mood. The journaling around the edge of the page finishes it beautifully. I didn't notice that the text was heart-shaped until I read AggieB's comments above. Duh. It adds a perfect touch!

What a wonderful exotic page. I love your title and the embellishments you chose. Really well done.

Nice layout! Great photos and perfect embellishments. I really the journaling around the edge of the page too. Well done!

I like the texture the deckle frames & zigzag of stitching add!

Very unique layout! I love everything about it - the papers, the stitching over the photos, the journalling around the page. It all just goes together so well!

Lovely layout and I love how you placed your journaling around the page. Love your title, boat wheel with palm trees and seagull, which looks like it's landing on the wheel. Great photos with torn edges and stitching holding them on the page.

Fantastic page! I love how you did the stitching.
