This page will probably end up getting moved to the end of the album because as I was making it I realized it would make a nice little end cap to the project as a whole. Once again, this photo was taken on the Goth Night of the ship and they super imposed us in front of the crowd for Bowling For Soup from the first night. In person I can point to where we are in the crowd so technically we're in the photo twice.
I like the rock on sentiment being the end of the album since it encapsulates it all pretty well. It also is very typical of the other pages so it really does wrap it up nicely. The song I'm using for today is actually from Yungblud, an artist that I saw for the first time on the very last Warped Tour festival in California. I feel like it's appropriate because the idea of still finding new music and new artists to love after all these years I've spent with Warped Tour is truly my way of rockin' on.
This page is a little different than the others I've made for this album so far but I tried to keep it in the same world by using a similar color scheme and of course the skulls. The day this picture was taken I had woken up pretty sea sick, but it didn't take me long to figure out that floating in a pool on the ship actually helped quite a bit. While one of my favorite bands, Bowling For Soup, played poolside I happily floated around and got some sun. My friend was walking by and saw me so she took this picture before joining in.
I tried to use the same colors as previous pages and hoped the circles would be able to repeat the circle theme I have working throughout the album, even though I did something a little different with their arrangement. The song for the day is from Bowling For Soup since they truly were the soundtrack of this photo. Identifiable Elements:
Today is a special double page day since I made this double photo one for the album! These photos were taken at the pajama party night on the ship where I decided to wear my footie pajamas with dogs on the feet. There was a face painter at the party so I had her paint me to match the dogs on my feet. She was very excited to get to do something more creative since I let her completely take it away. A roaming cruise photographer saw me in the chair and stopped to snap some photos of the process and the finished product.
Yet again I can't tell you exactly what bits and pieces I used to make this page because they were all scrounged up from an overflowing stash. I tried to keep the page somewhat minimal so the photos would stand out. The song for the day is by Sleeping With Sirens since I think their name fits the Pajama theme pretty well. I've seen them multiple times on Warped Tour and love seeing their shows. The lead singer has a very pretty voice.

The page I worked on for today is of a another photo from the Goth Night where I got my head removed, but in this one I'm full-bodied. They had a Goth Night the second night on the ship so my friend and I dressed in our finest spooky blacks and joined in on the festivities. We had fun wandering around the ship to get acquainted with it. We got stopped for this photo which turned out pretty darn good!
This was a fun page to make because I often find myself leaning more towards silver than gold when I'm designing (and in my wardrobe too, now that I think about it...) so getting to use so much gold was a real treat. The song for today is from Black Veil Brides which is definitely more emo than goth but they skew more towards goth than the other bands I listen to. I've seen them a couple times on Warped Tour so it seemed fitting to use one of their songs for today. Identifiable Elements:

The page I knocked out today depicts the very first time I ever wore my Flash costume. I bought it specifically for this trip because I needed a fun Halloween costume, but I also needed one that wouldn't take up much space in my luggage. It's ended up being one of the best purchases I've ever made as I've worn it on many occasions. There was a costume party on the ship on Halloween night that was super fun. Some of the bands dressed up for it and there was a small parade from the children's station that went around showing off all the little kids in their costumes. I got candy from one of them because apparently I was their favorite superhero. My friend didn't want to dress up quite as much since we'd had a fairly long day already so she mostly just went punk/goth again.
I don't have many identifiable elements for this page because it was put together from a lot of bits and pieces I once again took from my mom's stash. 3OH!3 is one of my all time favorite bands and they have a very strong party vibe to them which is why they were the ones playing at the Halloween costume party. They brought fans dressed in inflatable dinosaur costumes up on the stage to dance and made it an awesome time. Identifiable Elements:

Since it is quarantine central over at my place I have taken this opportunity to finally work on finishing the cruise album I started last October. It is long overdue so I'm going to do my best to churn out the pages and finish it up! This was a pretty fun picture for us to take on the cruise. I had already purchased a photo pass package thing so we were able to take photos at the various photo booths they'd set up so when we stumbled on this one we had to give it a go.
I used some buttons from my mom's stash for this page that I stole when I moved out but she hasn't missed them yet so I don't feel too bad. The other elements of the page were things that I actually purchased specifically for this project. I usually by supplies without any specific project in mind but now that I've started planning out whole albums its made my buying habits more intentional and therefore less wasteful. The song I chose today got chosen since it has a nautical pirate themed video that fits the lovely beheading in our photo. I've seen Senses Fail on many a Warped Tour and they'll always have a place in my heart because of it. Identifiable Elements
