Lasting Memories Blog will be hosting challenges about transportation all month, and I've been racking my brains to figure out how to play along using my Yosemite pictures. When I came to these photos of deer grazing in the parking lot at Curry Village, I knew I was onto something! I die-cut the deer and cars to create little scenes reflecting our encounter with nature in the midst of civilization.
The sketch I used didn't have much space for journaling, so I included some hidden journaling in a pocket under the deer pictures on the right hand page. For a music challenge at Scrapbook.com, I used lyrics from the song Big Yellow Taxi on my journaling ("they paved paradise and put up a parking lot"), so it seemed appropriate to make one of the cars in my parking lot a taxi! Also in keeping with this theme, the horizontal lines in the title represent parking spaces.
