Cricut FANatics daily post

Today I have the daily post at Cricut FANatics.  If you have not visited our site, please stop by because we have something wonderful to share with you everyday.  I have created a two page layout to share with you.  Summer may be over but the summer memories still linger on.  I am working on my grandson Cameron's album and did these pages for a trip we took to Coney Island.  I used the cartridges Carousel and Summer Celebrations.
 I love the bright colorls that this Stampin Up Paper has and it was perfect for these pictures!
I cut my title from Carousel using the shadow feature for the letters cut at 1.25 inches.  I decided not to use the top part of the letters since I was cutting it smaller.  I used my Scrap n' Easel to line up the letters.
 Since I did not use the top part of the letters, I took my Uniball white pen and added some markings.
 I cut the Ferris Wheel from Carousel at 5 inches shadow and base, but cut 4 different colors gray, white, teal, and red.  I added the gray on top of my black base and cut out different color cars from the other pieces and then colored the gray with silver stickles.
The roller coaster is cut from Summer Celebrations at 4.5 inches.  I cut several layers and cut to fit so different colors will be shown.  In the final one on the page, I stickled the gray area in silver.  I also cut a ticket booth from Carousel at 5.75 inches and a bumper car at 3 inches.  I used the ticket booth for a journaling box. I am very pleased with the pages.
