Queen Wild Scraps has an awesome new release today. Earlier this year, the monthly SNP store collab was a desert themed kit and Lahni had made some state templates as her portion of the collab. A number of the girls on the CT told her she needed to make more like that with all the states. And that is how State of Mind: West Coast came to be. Don’t worry if you don’t like these states, Lahni has enough State of Mind template sets planned to cover all fifty states. You can pick up State of Mind: West Coast today through August 28th for 40% off.
I have two layouts to share using State of Mind: West Coast. First up uses the Hawaii template. This will be the cover page to my family’s Hawaiian vacation when I was 20. My Dad recently gave me CDs of his digital pictures. I need to scan the negatives before scrapping anymore, since there are very few photos of my Dad taken with his camera.

This second layout uses the California template. I resized the photo spots and used the state to journal a summary of our trip. This was our first out of two so far trips without kiddos. As our kiddos are 4 and 2 and we’ve traveled in 2011 and 2013, maybe we’ll make it a every other year tradition.
