and summer is almost here. Yippee!
Today I’m sharing an 8-1/2-x-11-inch scrapbook layout memorializing our night
out seeing Hamilton (An American Musical) at The Orpheum Theater in San
Francisco on April 20th.

Francisco on April 20th.
After a week of submitting to win the Hamilton Lottery, I won two tickets to see
it. GOOD seats, too–orchestra seats–SOOO lucky! I took my younger daughter,
Gwen, who is an absolute fan of the show. In fact, earlier in the month, she and
her friend, Karlee, won their school’s talent show performing “Your Obedient
Servant” from Hamilton. She was beyond thrilled and will remember that night
forever.

Now on to explain the layout a bit . . .
The title for the layout is a lyric from
one of the songs in the musical. The cameras and sentiment were from this
month’s Kit of the Month and were just perfect for this layout. They would be
perfect for any scrapbook layout.

Here’s a peek at this month’s Kit of the Month.
The little squiggly artistic embellishment behind the Hamilton logo is from this
month’s SMAK Kit.

I thought it would be a nice touch to add the musical logo for Hamilton and
fussy cut it using my Silhouette Cameo. I added a little zigzag stitch as a
vertical embellishment to the cluster of patterned paper borders and adhered the
little cameras using pop dots for dimension.

BY THE WAY–If you get a chance to see this musical, DO IT! Also, play the
Hamilton lottery. It’s real. You really can win. It’s available to play every day.

Here’s another lyrical quote from Hamilton (An American Musical).
This lyric inspired me to scrapbook for sure. YOU tell your story!
I hope you all have a week full of
inspirational happiness and creativity.

Beautiful layout to remember your night!
Camile, I just love your layout! It's been awhile since I've scrapbooked. Right now I'm working on a commissioned project for 60 mini albums for a children's charity. I've kinda hit a wall in my design. You've given me some needed inspiration today! Thanks!
Also, thanks for the shoutout. Wish it was or a card I actually LIKE. LOL.
Wow, Camille – your layout is such a great way to showcase a memorable day – the May KOTM looks like it was meant for that layout!
And I am blown away by the shout out for my card! Thank you!
Love, Peace n Ink
