At the Beach in Barcelona!

I also managed to get some layouts done at the Retreat I was at earlier this month (only 3, but I’m quite proud of those 3 layouts ).

Back in May 2000 I went to Europe with my parents and a friend. I’ve spent the last 4 Retreats I’ve been to scrapbooking this trip. I’m on Day 5 of a 17 day trip, and have a total of 21 pages down. Sheesh! I’m going to have a HUGE book!

This was Day 2 or 3. We were leaving on a cruise from Barcelona. The day before we walked all over Barcelona, and ended up at the Beach. We were so excited to get to the Beach, but were quickly disappointed. The beach was just filled with trash everywhere (litter), and it was a nude beach as well! Let’s just say there should definitely be rules about who should be allowed to go nude and who shouldn’t be (think little old women AND men!!!!).

Anyway, at the Retreat they had a Block Bucket (I think that’s what they called it – correct me if I’m wrong you guys)! It was a great idea really. Inside a bucket were dozens of different challenges if you couldn’t decide what you wanted to do on a page. I pulled one out for this page and the Challenge was to mat a photo on a photo. I’m not sure that this is exactly what they meant by that, but this is how I went about it!
