Photo Collage and BIG Numbers

Love this little cluster and finally using a bunch of

things in my stash.

The transparencies are fun but tough to stick down.

I used my xyron machine and it seems to work.

 I really wanted to use the HUGE numbers.

So I did and love the result.

 The tassel is fun and finally worked in that pink and 

blue tag.

 After I got all the big stuff in I forgot about the journaling LOL

and the only place to put it was at the top

and bottom of the page.

Used a mix and match of alphas because

I didn't have all the letters.

Studio Calico.

Around Seattle, again.

As you may or may not know, last year

we met up with the grandkidlets

in Seattle last year. (parents came too but hey

its all about the grands LOL)

And I got really lame photos of the space needle.

 And that could still be the case.

and NO, we did not go up.

Because Lynn is a chicken.

Bwack.

 Who can resist a pink elephant and since ya'll are seeing it tooooo....😇

 Another icon is the Seattle wheel.

And no we didn't ride that either.

Because Lynn is a chicken.

 And then Pike's Market.

 Lots of beautiful goodies.

 This little chickie kicked pigeon ass to get this crumb.

And he was guarding it while trying to swallow it whole.

 Seagulls because there aren't enough in Florida.

 Dueling pigeons.

 The winner.

 Again with the space needle because its really cool.

 Closing with Starbucks.

Actually we closed with some Church's chicken at the Des Moines Marina

and watched a sea lion bob up and down and some ducks

bobbing about.

No photos because my paws were quite greasy and

it tasted soooooo good.

Heading home tomorrow.

Rearranging things - Another purple photo

Another 8x10 backed on by 8.5x11 kraft paper

that replaced a lighthouse hanging in our kitchen

and yes, another printed purple picture

that I couldn't toss.

 I had a lot of space in this photo and some

stuff that wasn't necessary so I covered it up with a tag

that holds some journaling.

You might remember this photo from our trip

this year and its also in my road trip album.

 Found some oversized title too

and why not.

Also those cute little whale stamps (gifted from Holli)

and seriously when and I'm gonna ever gonna use a whale stamp.

Studio Calico.

Scappy time on the road

Again, let me apologize for the photo, cropping.

Totally awkward.

Anyway its fun and since I rearranged stuff

I wasn't as annoyed tonight.

LOL.

Using Pink Fresh and various embellishments.

Got some photoshopping to do and

hoping for more downtown tomorrow.

Heading into Seattle

This is the Admiralty Head Lighthouse at Fort Casey.

So pretty and it was closed.

 And my one shot of the space needle flying down the road.

 I have to point out that driving in Seattle is worse than

driving in New York City.

Seriously.

NYC is laid out in a grid, Seattle is chaos.

 We made it to Pikes Market but they were not tossing fish about.

Which was a bummer.

 And there wares are very enticing and delicious.

 Had a lovely lunch at 3 Sisters bakery.

The clam chowder was divine.

 We had a date with the grandkids at Seattle Aquarium.

We had a great time.

They were game for anything and was really

interested in everything.

 The puffins were fun and they are fast swimmers.

 And this adorable otter

 was floating on his back and rubbing his head.

Sort of like giving himself a shampoo.

He was very popular.
