DinoLand usa

April 14, 2008 Sarah Coggins

Yesterday I went shopping with my sister which included a trip to Archiver’s. On my list were the new Archaic line of patterned papers by Basic Grey for a layout of DinoLand USA at Animal Kingdom.


I wanted the journaling to mimic exhaust from the “car” I was driving into DinoLand. I used the same steps I shared in my Shaped Text post last November. Unlike creating the Mickey head text, I didn’t have a photo of what I wanted. Instead I sketched out the lines on a blank piece of white paper, scanned them into Photoshop and then “traced” with the pen tool.

Supplies: Basic Grey Rock, Dino and Bunny Hill patterned papers; QuicKutz dinosaur and Studio & metro fonts; Making Memories leather frame cut into photo corners; Die Cuts with a View adhesive backed cardstock; misc. tan cardstock; fonts: Garamond, Matisse, 2Peas Crate, 2Peas Silly, and Akbar. Inspired by Apr 14 of dw2008.
