Down By The Bay from Scraps N Pieces

Way back many years ago in 1995, I was working at a bank and won a trip to San Francisco including tickets to Phantom of the Opera.  You have to understand that my husband is not in to cultural things like that.  He enjoyed the trip and the sightseeing but was determined not to love the Phantom.  So, we went, and he liked it.
The next year, I won the trip again.  He refused to go see Phantom again.  So, since his dad taught drama at the Jr High for many years and has appeared in quite a few plays himself along with TV commercials and a few TV shows, we decided to offer our Phantom tickets to my husbands parents.  They bought airplane tickets and went on the same trip as us but they used our Phantom tickets and then we all spent the rest of our vacation together.  There is so much to see and do in San Francisco and I loved going both times.  So, now I finally have these ancient photos scrapbooked and I’m so excited!  We hope you love this kit made for all those pictures Down By The Bay!
Now that I’ve rambled for 1/2 an hour, here is a preview of the kit that is linked to the store and on sale for $2.50 this week.  There are elements, and fact tags included for things such as Alcatraz, Lombard Street, Fisherman’s Wharf, Chinatown, Ghirardelli Square, Pier 39, the Cable Cars, and Fisherman’s Wharf.

Here is a closer look at just the papers

We also have a cardstock pack that you can get for just $1 when you purchase at the same time as the kit.  Use coupon SNPbayCS to get the deal.  It includes 7 cardstocks.

Be prepared for lots of pictures because I made a book and so did Sheri from our CT.  I’m going to show you the actual San Francisco photos first, then what everyone else did with this versatile kit.
