Trains! Round One...

Some of my kids love trains. lovvvvve trains.
A few years ago the Big Boy engine 4014 was on display in our area, so my husband and I took our youngest to check it out. We decided it was totally worth our son missing a little bit of school to come see it the next day, ha. That meant we got a lot of pictures, which finally got scrapped! 

On this layout, I used an old Simply Scrappin' Kit for a few bits here. It's actually more postage themed than train, but somehow, in my brain, it worked. 
Oh, the journaling is typed up in a strip on the top of the second page, but I took the picture before typing it. 

Supplies:

Stamps: Traveler, Just Perfect Alpha
Ink: Always Artichoke, Tip Top Taupe
Paper: Basic White card stock, Tailor-Made Simply Scrappin' Kit
Accessories: Tailor-Made Simply Scrappin' Kit, Chocolate Baker's Twine from a PP Kit
Journaling Font: Courier New

Our fence was finished last week! Check out the change in view! haha...! 

We're all very excited. We have a gate in the back as shown, and a gate on each side, and a fully fenced backyard! No more wandering pets or visiting wildlife leaving their deposits in the yard. Even me and my internal reality-check that putting in a garden means a lot. more. work. come fall. ha. It's gonna be awesome!
