Convention in the Capital--part 3: Teddy Roosevelt Island

Sunday morning, the club sponsored a get-together on Theodore Roosevelt Island. Several club members and I took the Metro and then walked to the park. Once there, one of the capitol locations with a LOT of stamps had set up tents with all the stamps available to us. It was a veritable smorgasbord of stamping! We listened to a ranger talk but did not take advantage of the walk around the island.

The background of the left page of the layout is an 8 1/2 x 11 piece of paper split into thin strips and spread across the page. The paper is from the Eastern National scrapbook pack. If you can't quite make out the pattern, it's the NPS arrowhead logo printed in tile fashion across the page. The journal box originally had a flower in the left corner. Technically, it's still there, but I covered it with a Teddy Roosevelt sticker. (This sticker and the Grant sticker from last week are from the Washington DC scrapbook pack from Eastern National. Slightly different than the traditional pack.)

The right page is just plaid wallpaper. I didn't mat any of the photos because the  little bit of foliage I left when trimming the photos was sort of a mat for me.
