Documenting Week 33 with Vintage Charm

Happy Thursday! Danielle here today to share with you Week 33 of my Project Life, using the Vintage Charm Daily Diary Kit.

 This weeks Design Team Challenge is to use the phrase "Love & Laughter". I chose to use the element of "hearts" as my spin on it

 There are lots of "heart" items to chose from in this kit, from the WRMK paper & puffy stickers, to the Simple Stories cards.

And here is a close up

How are you making out with your 2016 Project Life?

Vintage Charm: Love and Laughter

Happy Wednesday, paper lovers! Jana Eubank here. I had so much fun creating my page for the "Love and Laughter" design challenge this week. I pulled some silly photos of my husband and I to document how much I love this man and how lucky I feel to be on life's journey with him.

LOVE AND LAUGHTER

I loved the dotted pattern overlayed on top of the circles in the Circle Pattern paper ... It reminded me of stitching and so I decided to include stitching on my page.

The butterflies and phrase stickers from the Vintage Charm kit have gotten a lot of mileage on my pages this month. They make the perfect accents!

I even included one in my flower cluster at the lower left corner of my photos.

(And just an FYI, those are NOT my husband's sunglasses ... they are actually mine. Ha! He loves to take silly selfies and send them to me when he is driving my car. *giggle* ... My kids call these sunglasses my "sweet sunnies" from the 80s. Hey, that's alright! ... They are my favorite color and I think they are RAD. :D )

I used an ampersand from the kit as part of my title. The words "love" and "laughter" are from a cut file I found in the Silhouette Design Store.

 Below the title, I created a cluster of pennant shapes in lots of different sizes. Some of them are stickers, some of them are tags, and some of them are created from the 6x6 papers from the Vintage Charm Daily Diary Kit. I even created one from the yellow cardstock, embossing it with my Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder.

Here's a loser look at my journaling.

And a final angled view of the page so you can see a bit of the dimension.

I've loved working with the Vintage Charm kits this month! And now I'm ready to dig into the Buttons & Bows kits ... I'll be back next week to show you my first project for September.

See you then!

Love and Laughter Vintage Charm Daily Diary Project Life Page

Hello Everyone, Lynn here with my latest project life page using this month's Vintage Charm Daily Diary Kit. The DT challenge this week is called "Love and Laughter". The challenge is to use "Love and Laughter" as a title for your project. Instead of a title I incorporated the phrase into my journaling on one of my project life cards. I used pics of my new puppy because she makes me laugh every day and she is so loved! I used Simple Stories "Bloom and Grow" cards and stickers for my page - love the Bloom and Grow collection!! Here's my page.

I love the woodgrain and bright colors in this collection by Simple Stories. Here's close ups of the cards starting with my title card. I used the coordinating Bloom and Grow Alpha and Sticker sheet to decorate my title card.

I popped up a die cut shape on the next card. How stinkin cute are the gnomes that are part of the collection?!

Here's the next few cards. The ampersand is on the outside of the pocket without a background. 

Here's my journal card where I added the "Love and Laughter" phrase from this week's challenge. I outlined the phrase to make it stand out a bit more. 

This card has one of my favorite recent pics of Lola. She is just too cute!!

The last card includes more adorable gnomes. I added a kite die cut to one of the gnomes.

I have loved this collection for my last few project life pages. I hope I've inspired you with ideas for your PL pages.

Thanks for stopping by today and have a great week. I'll be back next week with a layout using our new September Classic kit.

Documenting Week 32 with Vintage Charm

Happy Thursday! Danielle here today, to share with you my Week 32 of my Project Life, using the Vintage Charm Daily Diary Kit!

 This weeks Design Team Challenge - Family Time - Create a project showcasing your favourite ways you spend time with your family.

 I chose to add more photos of our annual fishing vacation in northern Ontario for the challenge. This is our favourite place to go as a family and we all have so much fun together.

The Simple Stories Bloom & Grow Alpha sticker sheet with the tiny word stickers were perfect for adding little titles to some of the photos.

 Here are some close up's

 This "Little Moments" flair from Pretty Little Studio was the perfect little touch for this weeks challenge.

What's your favourite way to spend time as a family?

Vintage Charm Daily Diary Kit: Family Time

This week on the Noel Mignon blog we are sharing pages about our favorite ways to spend time with our family.

Hi Everyone! Jana Eubank here. I love summer time with my family! I love the relaxed schedule and all of the different activities we do together. This particular pocket page spread includes a lot of those summer traditions ... like parades, picnics, concerts, and backyard croquet. These are just some of the things we like to do together!

FAMILY TIME

I worked with the Simple Stories Bloom & Grow elements from the Vintage Charm Daily Diary Kit on this layout. I've mentioned it before, but I just love the primary colors mixed together with the warmth of the woodgrain.

PAGE 1

I pulled in the kraft Prima flowers from the Vintage Charm Classic Kit to use her to continue the neutral brown colors.

I love using the letter stickers, die cuts, and epoxy brads to decorate each of the journal cards!

PAGE 2

Aren't those little wood veneer words by Jillibean Soup the cutest! I love how they look stacked together on that rain cloud card!

How do you like to spend time with YOUR family in the summer? Have you documented those memories?

Project Life with the Vintage Charm Daily Diary Kit

Happy Tuesday! Lynn here with a new project life page using this month's "Vintage Charm" Daily Diary Kit. Believe it or not there are still a few of these awesome kits left in the store, so grab one while there's time! 

Our theme this week is "Family Time". The challenge is to create a project showcasing our favorite ways to spend time with our family. The last time my crew was all together was this past March for Easter. Since my Dad has limited mobility dinner was at my parents house to make it easier on him. Our family always has amazing feasts - plenty of DELICIOUS food with enough left over for everyone to take home. The company is great and we have lots of laughs catching up with our lives. Here's my page. I used WeR Memory Keepers "Honey I'm Home" collection included in the kit. 

I love the cards in this collection - it made putting this spread together quite easy! Here's close ups of the cards, starting with the title card. 

I fussy cut a house and added it to my title card. Here's more close ups.

I love puffy stickers - they add dimension without too much bulk on your project.

I had to include a photo of the food - that's one of the highlights of our gatherings.

Here's the last two cards. I love Katelynn in this picture enjoying some coloring.

I typed some journaling on my vintage typewriter.

I hope this project life page has given you some inspiration to use your Vintage Charm Daily Diary Kit. Have a great week and thanks for stopping by.

Hey everyone, Michelle here! We're using those great frames in the kits on our pages and this week I have a couple pages to share, one from the Vintage Charm Classic Kit and one from the Daily Diary Kit. When I have a lot of pictures to scrap from an event/holiday/etc I like to create one traditional page and a pocket page for all of the extra photos. 

On my main page I used the frames from both kits as decoration on the side. That blue and white striped tab with the wooden 'smile' is also a frame tucked under my photo. Since I had a lot of journaling I printed it directly on my patterned paper under my photos.

 

For my pocket pages I mostly used elements from the daily diary kit along with bits and pieces from the classic kit. I used one of the frames from the classic kit as decoration in one of the 4x6 pockets. The button stickers from the classic kit made cute little bullet points for my journaling.

On the reverse side I again used one of the frames from the classic kit as a design element rather than a frame for a photo. The pocket pages work wonderfully for all of those extra photos from my daughter's birthday!

Documenting Week 31 with Vintage Charm

Happy Thursday! Danielle here to share with you, Week 31 of my Project Life!

I used the Vintage Charm Daily Diary Kit to create this.

This week we were away on vacation, so I had lots of photos. I used 2 Design A pages, 1 Design F page cut down, and a 8.5 x 11 page cut down. 

I am in love with the Jen Hatfield gems, and the darling deer flair from Pretty Little Studio in this months kit.

Here are the Design F pages that I cut down

I chose to keep it simple, because there are so many photos. The only embellishment I used are the WRMK Acetate pieces that I cut down and staple to the grid card

And here is the 8.5 x 11 page that I cut down. I wanted to save the lid to the box of mocassins we bought the boys.

Here I attached a picture Noah drew, to the back of the box.

Have you had a chance to document your summer vacation yet?
