Hello California: A Mini-Album

Subject:

In January of 2013, we took a trip out to California for the CHA trade show and an extended trip away from home. We went to Disneyland, Venice Beach, and did a bunch of sightseeing around the LA area.

Date Made:

Over a 3-4 month period of time -- March to June 2013.

Construction:

This is an Amy Tangerine Daybook. I left all of the pages in their original order, but ripped out a couple of sheets that didn't work with the story.

Number of Pages:

30 + front and back cover

Notable Parts:

Obviously the photo with Rob Delaney (yes, I am that short) -- I thought it was super cute paired up with the die-cut lady page in the daybook.
I really like the pocket pages for extra photos and memorabilia. I took hundreds of photos at Griffith Park, but I didn't want to take up half the book with them, so it proved to be a perfect solution.
The pictures from Venice Beach (the sunset pictures) are probably my favorite pictures of all time.
I love using these pre-made daybooks for getting out a long story in chronological order. They read like a storybook and keep the narrative interesting -- and you can just pull embellishments from your stash to add as much (or as little) as you'd like.
