Scrappy: My World...

This week's challenge at AAM is My World From a Different Angle. There are so many different directions that this prompt can go. I chose to talk about how traveling helps me see my world from a different angle. The journaling in the pocket talks about how passionate I am about traveling and seeing so many different things with open eyes and an open heart. Through traveling I have learned a lot about myself as well as a lot about other cultures and traditions.



My photo printer and I have been in a fight for about a month now, so I had to order prints and pay for them. Well they messed my print up and since someone else picked them up and didn't check them, I ended up with with a smudged picture. I decided it wasn't worth driving back across town for, so I scrapped it and I actually like how it looks.

THE BIG GIVEAWAY!!!
I know that as soon as I announce a winner that I'm going to lose a few followers, but I hope that I have entertained some of you enough so that you'll stick around!

My friend Jonathan helped me with the name drawing:





The winner is.....

Beautiful page, and YAY anotehr travel junky!!!! You remind me that I really need to do a layout about my passion for travel. I just dont understand people who dont have the desire and I try so often to explain that it's not necessarily about the destination as much as it is about the experience and the people you meet!!!

I love how it looks!
Accidents are beautiful!
One time my printer insisted on printing a picture out with one half sepia and one half b/w..
I finaly gave up, and it looked cool with me on one side and my loved one on the other.. :)
