This week's challenge at  Catch the Bug is the Great Outdoors .  When I saw this week's theme I knew that I wanted to use this cute digital Moose image from the Bugaboo Store.  (You will LOVE that he's only $1) I also knew that I wanted to create a scrap page this week. So, I pulled out some photos from trips that we've made recently around Alaska and made a simple layout. One of the great things about digital images is the ability to make them any size you want!

Various stickers were applied from  Echo Park and Close To My Heart kits which were in my stash.
