08/01/16 - MIM #67

Hi and Happy August!
Last month "The Memory Nest" had 4 sketches instead of the usual 2.
The same will happen this month.
Today I bring you "Make it Monday" Sketch #67.
Last day for entries = August 30th 2016.


MIM#67



"Our 15th" 
Journaling: "Our fifteenth anniversary included our traditional trip to Vegas.
We saw "Carrot Top" for the 2nd time, the 1st was for our 11th anniversary, and
ate at a new-to-us restaurant called "Rice and Company". Both were at the Luxor
and both were great! 7.17.16 /Anniversary = 7.16.16"


As you can see I didn't use many triangles on my layout.
I am not a triangle person...circles are my favorite shape and you have seen/will see them a lot on my layouts!
Incorporating the triangles into my layout was difficult for me, but I did include the large one on the bottom right, which doubles as a place to hold our tickets from the show, and I punched some smaller triangles that I added to the opposite corner to balance out the layout.

Fun fact: I bought the triangle punch a couple of years ago and this is the first time I've used it!

  5. I'm not a triangle person either, at least not when it comes to layouts. The asymmetry is tough for me too. I would have struggled with this sketch for sure. You nailed it!
