Two Page Scrapbook Layout - "Cable Car"

The iconic San Francisco cable cars!! Need I say more. We waited in line for an hour and a half, but it was worth the wait to check this off my bucket list.
 Part of the wait involved the cable car system being down for repair, but the rest was just a mass of humanity wanting to take their turn. It was fascinating watching them turn around slowly at the end of the road. I was praying nobody would fall out as we went up the steep hills. The views from the top were amazing too.
 I struggled with my color choices on this layout! Not sure what I was thinking actually. I'm still not sure about it, but I dislike it less than I did.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!!! One more Golden Gate layout before we head down the coast. I really want to go back!!

Two Page Scrapbook Layout - Nashville, Indiana

This snowy, sub-zero weather makes me wish I had a fireplace. Nothing like curling up to a toasty fire, with your sweetheart. But here we sit in our cute little house with no fireplace. Thankfully, though, the furnace does a great job of keeping us warm, even though we are lacking the romantic ambiance we desire.

For our 28th anniversary, I surprised Mark and rented a log cabin in Nashville, Indiana. Our anniversary is the first week in December. When we left, they were predicting snow, but we figured we'd drive out of it since we were heading south. Little did we know how much snow we were in for.

 If you ever get a chance to rent a log cabin in the snow, go for it! We drove down this long, narrow, snowy lane with the porch light acting as our beacon. Wow! What a great adventure. It was just the two of us in the log cabin perfection!
 The paper is Creative Memories and Jen Wilson. The bold aqua, blue and red snowflakes were cut with Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge. I purchased the title die at an adorable scrapbook shop in town. I backed the log cabin with brown paper to help it show up better on the snowflake paper.
The fireplace was so warm and cozy!!! The next evening, after sweeping it off, we enjoyed the hot tub out in the snow. It took some convincing to get me out there, but man oh man....it was the best.

Come back later this week for a few more layouts from our Nashville, IN winter adventure.
