Sand beach August 2020 #80

I’m still plugging along on my album from last years vacation to Maine. One of my resolutions this year is to complete the albums I start. I have only completed a handful of traditional scrapbook albums over the years, and another dozen are in some state of completion, waiting to infill chronologically, or trying to track down some long lost photos. These challenges have really helped me focus on reaching my goals.

This page documents some fun frolicking on a rainy, cloudy day at Acadia National Park’s Sand Beach. I was struck by how brown but small the grains of sand was in Maine. I found the perfect photo paper for the background at a craft store specific to documenting everything Maine called Fab•ri•cate in Bar Harbor that really captures the color and texture of the sand, so I wanted to let the paper shine and keep the layout simple.

Although I planned this page to stand independently, I did have a previous page I made in mind when I designed it so it would be complimentary to its sister page in the album. See my previous blog post from July 2020 Purple Seaweed.
