I used the Exit Here collection to produce this two page layout about a part of a family road trip vacation two years ago. As a scrapbooker, I took almost 300 photos of our two week trek but decided to split them up into a few pages so I don’t feel overwhelmed in trying to fill a single scrapbook page with tons and tons of photos. With the help of a themed collection like this from Nikki Sivils and Glue Arts adhesive, making this project was easy as pie.
