Last week I shared with you the first half of my Camping Daybook that I made for our annual family camping trip to Lake Michigan. You can find part 1 here. This is the second half of the book. The first sunny day was super windy but that didn't keep us away from the beach. There was a dune that needed climbing. My niece was really afraid of the water but when uncle got done with her, she was fine. The next day at the beach was even more beautiful. The boys climbed the dunes several times and we could hardly get the kids out of the water. We always celebrate Ryan's birthday at family camping. As always, thanks for stopping by and I'd love to read your comments.

Every summer we have an annual family camping trip. We usually go to a campground on Lake Michigan for about 5 days. We got to the beach, eat s'mores, cook out, go for walks and have tons of fun. This year I made a daybook to show off all my fun pictures from our trip. I first showed you the outside of the daybook I created using digital scrapbook paper from Tsunami Rose Designs. I used this really cool wood plank paper. You can find the blog post with all the links to the zibbet store here. I hope you take a look. She has some really cute scrapbooking papers. I will be doing more guest blogging with her designs in the future so keep an eye out for that. Here is the cover of my camping daybook: I added some beads to the left over hemp on the binding and also on my tie. The beads are word beads, pony beads, wood beads and some homemade paper beads. This daybook is very different from my Summer Fun Daybook. This book is much thinner for one. The embellishments in this book are more simple with lots of homemade tapes, doodling, ripped papers, and handwritten journalling. We had a couple days of rain when we first got there. What do you do when you are camping and it rains? Well, you play with stickers, you draw in aunties junk journal, you paint your toes like aunties, you play video games with your cousins and you tolerate your mom while she makes you pose for all kinds of pictures. And then when it stops raining, the children are released into the wild to walk on logs, go for walks, chase birds and squirrels....the fire gets going and of course it's s'more time! Yum!!! I hope you enjoyed the first half of my camping daybook. I'll be back in a couple days with the rest.
Thanks for stopping bye and I do hope you'll leave me a comment and let me know what you think. MiMi Dibble THEscrapinator5000 |
