The luggage itself is a rounded rectangle. The handle is made by cutting out an appropriate sized circle and tucking it under the case.
The first page is of course the itinerary. This time I listed all of the activities one could attend, not just the ones that are in the album. I highlighted the centennial in red and then added a few Philadelphia stickers to finish the page.
On the right is an 8 1/2 x 11 portrait sleeve. The real reason this is here is that as I was working on the album I realized that I hadn't made a space for the unigrid and I really wanted to include it. I also needed more room on my visit to the US Mint which is the layout below. To fill out the rest of the page I added Washi tape to the top and bottom for a simple border and then added a die cut of the Liberty Bell that I've had in my stash for a while.
So the first thing I did upon arriving in Philadelphia was visit the Mint. I know it isn't an NPS site, but the page ended up including some random walks through the city and the Ben Franklin Memorial, which IS part of the NPS as an Affiliated Site. I also grabbed a shot of Independence Hall as I walked by. Another photo is of the Penns Landing bridge which is near where I parked.
As I said, the left page is the portrait sleeve and ended up being a great place to store my tour brochure from the Mint as well as a postcard. The brochure is mounted with paper photo corners. I thought the red helped set it off a little bit. The right page is part of a Fast to Fabulous set which was called Uncharted. It's a little bit of vintage and travel combined. The page has a built-in border and then a small print. All I had to do was mat the photos. There are 2 more stickers from the Philadelphia pack and their borders match the photo matting somewhat. All I needed was a journal box and it was done!
