Butterflies and vacation 40

Hi there! Hope you are all having a fantastic weekend! Scott and I are at our home away from home in San Diego enjoying the beautiful California coast for a few days. There's always downtime in the evening or early morning hours so I brought a few supplies to complete another page in my art journal.

I'm having a lot of fun and enjoying the creative process as I work on my art journal pages playing with various mediums while combining some of my favorite "regular" products such as Spellbinders dies. I made a few butterfly stencils using two out of the five beautiful butterfly dies from Spellbinders Wonderful Wings.

Before leaving home, I created four background canvas's and like snowflakes, no two are the same!

Here's a pic of the supplies I brought with me to complete my art journal page:

Scott has been playing with the iPhone App called Hipstamatic. In case you haven't used it, it is a fun and cool photography app that allows you to alter your photos making them look like they were taken using an antique camera. So here are some photos taken while on our trip. This is a pic taken while we were eating lunch on the terrace at George's At The Cove in La Jolla. We were watching a few people swim ~ (yes swim in the 60 degree water temp) with the California seals:

I love the shimmery metallic pastel colors of these beach cruisers where we rented bikes on Mission Beach:

We stayed to watch the sunset:
