This is fun. Scrapin' pictures from Family Vacations, back when you where a kid! That is me and my brother. SO cool. Not. We did not have IPods, or cell phones or even our one computer in the house. We had Walkman radio/tape players. My play list, I mean my favorite "tapes" included The Police. (Still does.) It is so weird, that James is older today than I was in this picture.
Here is the full page.
Here is the Scrap Map and a Challenge. Use this map and scrap! Post a link to your page in the comments. No deadline. Just get some pictures out and Scrap! Do it! You know you want to! Can't wait to see your creations! If you post to Splitcoaststampers.com be sure to put DBSSLayout1 in the keywords. 
Here are some detail shots.
I used the Hidden Garden Rub-Ons that Coordinate with Eastern Blooms. (LOVE that about Stampin' Up! that everything matches.) Created the edge boarder by Embossing Chocolate Chip Craft Ink with Iridescent Ice, punched and cut in half 1" and 3/4" Circles. Colors are Chocolate Chip, Close to Cocoa and Bashful Blue.
I created the Origami Butterflies using Designer Series Paper in Bashful Blue. A few large blossoms are stamped in Craft Bashful Blue in the background, not embossed. In case you did not notice in the journaling, we did not go to Asia...we are "Disney World" Travelers. I love everything Asian, food, art, literature (especially Japanese poetry) but I have not made it to Asia yet...This was such a fun page to make. If you have the Stampin' Up Demonstrator CD from Convention it is on the Art of the Heart CD. I have been SO blessed by Stampin' Up! Another one of the great benefits to being a demonstrator is the creative contests.
Here is the Title. Yes, I cut out the letters. The alphabet is Big Deal. My favorite. And I LOVE to cut it out. It may get old if you see a lot of my Scrapin'. The "i" is dotted with another Rub-On from Hidden Garden.
Hope you take the Challenge! Have a creative day, everyday. Diana
