Happy Thursday! Danielle here! Today, I am up today with a Week 46 of my Project Life combining what is left of my Noel Mignon Falloween & All Fall Daily Diary Kits!!
here is the process video
This weeks Design Team Challenge was a "Recipe Challenge" - to use the following
* 1 sheet of Cardstock
* 2 Alphas
* 3 Photos
* 4 Pattern Papers
* 5 Embellishments
I loosely played with this challenge.. For the Cardstock & Pattern Papers, I just used my journal cards. For the Alphas, I used the Simple Stories alpha stickers, and I fussy cut out the word FALL from a Simple Stories card. For the 5 embellishments I used 1)stickers, 2)enamel dots, 3) flair, 4) bobby pin/clips, 5) buttons. There was no way I could only use 3 photos, so instead my take on it is 3 vintage family photos.
Happy Wednesday, friends! Jana Eubank here. I'm tackling the Recipe Challenge this week where we were to use the following on our project: 1 sheet of cardstock, 2 alphabets, 3 photos, 4 patterned papers, and 5 embellishments.
I did squeeze in an additional wood button and some photo corners, but I have to say, I followed the recipe almost exactly and love what I was able to come up with. Here are my results!
FEEDING THE BIRDS
I created this page about my son feeding three lost baby birds using elements from both the All Fall Classic kit and All Fall Daily Diary kit and a sheet of white cardstock from my stash for the base.
My one piece of cardstock is the white cardstock I pulled from my stash. I used some distressing stamps by Stampin' Up (Watercolor Wash and Gorgeous Grunge) to add the ink splotches to the background.
The two alphabets I used are from the All Fall Classic kit. While I was building this page, I kept singing the Mary Poppins song, "Feed the Birds" in my head ... so that is what I went with for my title. Ha!
I have three photos on this page. One of my son feeding the lost baby birds, one of the birds, and one of the mother feeding her babies once she had figured out where they had gone off to.
For the four pieces of patterned paper, I used one to mat the photos and then layered three strips together as a band across the page.
For my five embellishments I used five chipboard leaves from the All Fall Daily Diary kit. I also added in a wood circle embellishment and some gold photo corners from my stash ... but you're okay I threw those in, right?! :)
I used the green glitter dots from the Thicker alpha stickers as embellishments, but I'm counting those as part of my two alphabets. :)
I hope you feel inspired to create something this week. Give our recipe challenge a try. It was fun to use these guidelines to think a bit differently about my page elements as I was putting this together ... and I think you'll have fun trying it to!
Hello Everyone! Lynn here hoping you all survived Thanksgiving, Black Friday and Cyber Monday! Did you score any good deals? I was tempted but settled with a BOGO calendar for Christmas gifts.
Today I'm sharing my final pocket page with the "All Fall" Daily Diary Kit. Our challenge this week is a fun one! It's a recipe challenge. Here are the ingredients we incorporated into our projects:
1 - sheet cardstock
2 - alphabets
3 - photos
4 - patterned papers
5 - embellishments
Here's my whole page.
I used my vintage typewriter for my journaling this week.
For my 1 sheet of cardstock I cut up a piece of cream cardstock and used it under my photos. 2 different alphabets can be seen on the following card.
3 photos was easy peasy. I printed my photos on my Instax Printer for cute polaroid type pics.
4 patterned papers was another easy peasy ingredient - plaid, floral, wood grain and burlap.
5 Embellishments: Simple Stories Clips, Cardstock Stickers, Enamel Dots, Die Cut Shapes and Washi Tape.
Here's the last few close ups. How cute is this bear ...
And the final two cards.
Thanks so much for stopping by today and checking out our latest challenge. Hope you join us and create something with this recipe!!
Have a great week and I'll be back next week with a new page with a brand new kit!!
Happy Thursday! Danielle here today and I have Week 45 of my Project Life to share with you! I did something a little different this week. I mixed the ends of my Noel Mignon Falloween & All Fall Kit to create this spread. Look at how perfectly these 2 kits blended together!
I love to add inserts, so here are photos of the entire spread with it and without it.
On a few of my cards, I added some stickles from my stash in the colour "Orange Peel" to add a little bling to this week. I also stapled a piece of the orange & black gingham ribbon to my date card. I love little bits sticking out from my pages!
How cute are those witch legs? I added them behind my photo, so they too, could also stick out of the top of my page. I layered lots of die cuts and stickers on my photos this week.
Here is the insert I created this week. I used a piece of white cardstock and adhered my photos and journal cards, then trimmed it down. Next I put it in an 8.5 x 11 page protector. I used a binder clip on the bottom to hold it in place, then used my ATG gun to add adhesive along the edge and stuck my ribbon down (front & back). I used my sewing machine to stitch the ribbon down. Then I took my scissors and trimmed away the excess page protector!
I used my hot glue gun to adhere the fabric flowers and rubber charms to the outside of the page, for some added texture.
First, here is a look at this spread, followed by the video and detail shots. Enjoy!
FALL
Let's talk about the left side of the page first ...
Of course I had to use some forest critters on this page, right?! I chose to cut out the Echo Park Fall is in the Air Bear and Fox from the 3x4 Journaling card paper and combine them with a couple of the trees from the Pebbles Woodland Forest sticker sheet. I also fussy-cut several of the leaves from the 8x8 vellum Pretty Little Studio paper to sprinkle at their feet.
Here I used some of the cut apart Pretty Little Studio phrases accented with scribble heart stickers and the Echo Park Paper decorative brads. So cute!
I cut the title from brown cardstock using my Silhouette Cameo machine and then embossed it with a woodgrain texture using an embossing folder.
Now for the right side of the page ...
Aqua blue is my favorite color, so of course I had to sprinkle in a bit with the Pretty Little Studio flair!
The Echo Park Fox keeps my journaling company at the bottom of the page with more handcut vellum leaves, decorative brads, and heart stickers.
The hedgie chipboard sticker found a home in the top right corner of my page along with more leaves and brads.
I added a date to this page by die cutting a tag from the yellow cardstock and stamping it with the month and year.
Thanks for joining me today! I hope you enjoyed this tour through my page.
Hello, Lynn here with another fall pocket page using this month's "All Fall" Daily Diary Kit. Our challenge this month is "Traditions". We are to showcase a Thanksgiving or Holiday tradition. My showcase is in the form of journaling and then I will share Thanksgiving pics next week. Here's my page using more Simple Stories "Hello Fall" products.
Here's the title card - I used one of the fun Simple Stories paper clips to embellish the title card.
Love the adorable fox included in this collection.
I printed my photos using the Collect App.
Here's my journaling about my family's Thanksgiving Traditions. Next week I'll document current Holiday photos!
Here's the final card.
Here's my last two weeks side by side using the Simple Stories "Hello Fall" collection.
Thanks so much for stopping by and we all wish you a very Happy Thanksgiving!! Can't wait to see all your Holiday photos!!
