Traditions with the "All Fall" Daily Diary Kit

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!!

All Fall: Pumpkin Patch Pocket Page

Good morning, creative friends! Jana Eubank here. Tonight it is supposed to snow in my town and that makes me a bit sad ... I'm not ready to give up the beautiful Autumn days just yet! Good think I can relish in them with my Noel Mignon All Fall Daily Diary Kit and All Fall Classic Kit.

I combine these kits together, along with a few elements from last month's Falloween Daily Diary kit, on the blog today to create a 3-page pocket page spread about my family's visit to the pumpkin patch last year.

GRATEFUL

I love it when Noel adds Simple Stories to the kits ... it is one of my most favorite paper companies! I especially love the colors, patterns, icons, and typography in this year's fall line that they did.

I used this blue bordered card to create my title card for this pocket page spread ... adding in a couple of die cuts. I also accented it with a few dimensional embellishments, the buttons from the Classic Kit and the enamel dots.

I can't get enough of these tiny phrase stickers in the kits! I used the woodgrain Pebbles phrase stickers in combination with the Simple Stories phrase stickers from last month's Daily Diary kit to accent several of my photos.

Our challenge this week was to use the word "family" somewhere on our project. I used the Echo Park oval die cut on the top right photo, clustering it with a Simple Stories die cut flower grouping and more phrase stickers.

These orange patterned buttons included in the Classic Kit this month are too cute! I think I used one on almost every card in this spread!

 

A few stickers accent these photos and then the bottom journaling card gets a bit of dimension with another orange button, combined with a wood button from last month's kit.

I used all of the fun Simple Stories products on this third page in the spread, as well.

The enamel dots and buttons add the perfect amount of dimension to each card or photo.

The plaid washi tape from last month's kit mixes in flawlessly with these products again. I added a narrow length of it to the bottom of two of my photos for additional color, trimming off the excess hanging over the edges.

I created the large journaling card myself, adhering a trimmed white notebook card from my stash on top of the patterned side of one of the Simple Stories 4x6 cards in the All Fall Daily Diary kit. A few Simple Stories stickers (from the Falloween Daily Diary Kit), die cuts, and a button dress it up for the season.

I love how this page came together! Have you documented some of your fall memories yet? 

See you next time!

It's All Fall Ya'll!!

Hi Everyone, Lynn here with a pocket page using this month's "All Fall" Daily Diary Kit. There are a few of these amazing kits left in the shop so get 'em while you can - there is a TON of Fall themed product in these kits!! Our challenge this week is called Pumpkin Patch. The challenge is to used patches of paper and incorporate stitching on our projects. Here's my page.

I did some stitching on a few of the cards starting with the title card.

Here's more close ups. The colors of these cards go perfectly with my fall tree pictures. How fun is this card ...

I stitched through the title of the next card.

I added some wonky stitching on the next card.

For the patch part of the challenge I layered copies of the same photo to look like patchwork.

Here's my final card. I used one of the chipboard leaves to add some dimension.

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you have a great week!!! 

Well, Hello November!

Hello and WOW, it's November 1st. Hard to believe. Lots going on this month ... Daylight Savings Time, Election Day, Veteran's Day and Thanksgiving. A busy month for sure. Lots to document and thanks to Noel's kits, it will be a breeze to create projects to honor all the events of November. However, since Halloween was yesterday I HAD to create one more pocket page with the "Falloween" Daily Diary Kit. I used a page design I don't usually gravitate towards but I like changing things up in my project life albums. This page is dedicated to Halloween and the pics I used are of the costumes worn by my Niece's daughter Tori. Our challenge this week is 3-1 ... use three of something and one of something! so fun, right!! Here's my page using photo pocket page design D.

I used Carta Bella's "Haunted" 4x6 journaling cards for this page and 4x6 photos. The three of something is the puffy stickers by Pebbles and the one of something is the strip of washi tape from Bella Blvd. Here's some close ups ... if you dare!

I love Tori's make up - she and her Mom go all out for Halloween - here she is a zombie hippie.

This makeup is amazing .. and a bit creepy!

I cut one of the 4x6 journaling cards into two to fill in middle pockets.

Here's the final card and photo.

Thanks for stopping by and I'll be back next week with a new pocket page using this month's BEAUTIFUL "All Fall" Daily Diary Kit. Have a great week and enjoy your Halloween candy!

"Enter if you Dare" with the FALLOWEEN Daily Diary Kit.

Hi There, Lynn here with a new pocket page using this month's "Falloween" Daily Diary Kit. The design team has a fun challenge this week called "Enter if you Dare". We added an interactive element somewhere on our project. This weekend I went to Home Goods and loved their Halloween decorations. I used the Collect App for my photos this week. Here's the whole page.

My title card

For my interactive element I used a craft knife to cut open the door on this next card. I added a button from the kit for the doorknob - it looks like an eyeball!

When the door is open ...

Here's more close ups of my cards. Check out the cute couple...

I added some embellishments to the photos to dress them up!

Here's the last few cards.

Check out the mummy display ...

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope your getting ready to scrap those Halloween pics!!

Have a great week!

Falling Leaves Challenge

Hello and Happy Tuesday!! Lynn here with another Project Life page using this month's "Falloween" Daily Diary Kit.  This will be another Fall themed page and then next week's spread will be all about Halloween. That's how versatile this kit is! The Design Team's challenge this week is "Falling Leaves". We were to use leaves somewhere on our projects. There are PLENTY of leaf embellishments in our kits so this was a breeze! Here's my page.

I used the Pebbles "Woodland Forest" papers and rubber charms for my page. I added a few stickers from Simple Stories as well. Here's the title card - I kept it simple so the leaves would be the focus.

For the next card I placed fun foam under the 4x4 card and that allowed for dimension and also to add the tree stickers under and on top of the card. Fun foam is a GREAT addition to foam tape - it provides uniform coverage (great for card makers) and is inexpensive. 

Here's some close ups of the cards. The enamel dots are from my stash and happened to be by Pebbles as well! I'm sure these were from a previous Noel Mignon Kit!! Love when that happens!! I added a Pebbles Rubber Charm Leaf to the pumpkin thankful card.

The leaf paperclip on the next card is from Doodlebug - I had that in my stash.

More rubber charms on the last few cards - these add a nice pop of color and dimension.

Here's the last few cards - the bunny card is my FAV on the page!

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you'll keep checking in this week for more inspiration from the Design Team! Have a great week!
