Another holiday, another adventure and another country to tick off the list. After exploring Vietnam, it was time to cross the border into Cambodia. Of course, I had to capture the moment with a group photo at the border crossing. It's not every day you walk from one country into another.
Cambodia certainly gave us plenty of memories to scrapbook. From the incredible temples of Angkor Wat and the magnificent tree roots at Ta Prohm to the beautiful architecture and colourful nightlife of Siem Reap, there was so much to see and experience.
For this layout, I decided to have a bit of fun with my photos and created oversized map pins using different patterned papers. I love how they let me squeeze several holiday highlights onto one 12x12 page without making it feel overcrowded.
I kept the background fairly simple with white cardstock, adding some colour with ink splatters, a little stamping and hand-drawn stitching. The dotted travel trails, complete with tiny hearts, help connect the photos and give the whole page a sense of adventure.
A few layered banners, a tag, some fussy-cut leaves and little travel embellishments finished everything off. And, of course, I couldn't resist adding a few enamel dots for extra dimension.
I love how this layout captures a little bit of everything from our Cambodian adventure, from crossing the border to exploring ancient temples and enjoying the sights and sounds of Siem Reap.
One country, so many wonderful memories and definitely an adventure to remember.
