Scrap Our Stash July Challenge!

Yesterday I decided that I wanted to get back into making some scrapbook pages, even though I'm still at my parent's house for a bit, and I only have a handful of photos to work with at the moment.  I decided to take on Scrap Our Stash's July sketch challenge.  At first I was hesitant because sketch challenges are harder than others for me and I was worried about not having the right photos for it.  Luckily for me, I found some that work, and I think that the page turned out great!

This was the sketch that we had to work off of:

I stuck close to the sketch until I realized the title I wanted was a bit bigger than theirs, but I think I made it work.  I really wanted to keep the photo positions, long background strip, and the fun accent in between the photos (which is something I would probably have never tried to do on my own).  I'm both glad  to say I kept all three.  For the "Arrow" I made sure to use arrow like pink paper and the thicker with the arrow banner.  I didn't have any true arrows in my personal stash to work with but even if it doesn't fit the challenge absolutely perfectly, I'm very proud of my effort.

This whole color scheme and everything isn't my usual style but I think I might start adopting it as such.  I really love how it turned out and can't wait to do some more like this!
