travel pocket pages

Last week I shared a couple layouts from my vacation album and this week I'm sharing a few pocket pages that are supplementing those layouts. Traditional layouts were created using the Enjoy the Journey Classic kit and the pocket pages were created using the Enjoy the Journey Daily Diary Kit.

So here is one of the layouts I shared last week:

And here is a pocket page to go along with that layout (all pages are 9x12): 

And here is how they will look together in my album. 

Here is another layout I shared last week:

And a few pocket pages to go along with that page. A Christmas Story House was a definite favorite so we I took lots of photos ;) 

If you love the movie you must go see the house & museum!!

As I finish up my vacation album I might move things around a bit, add some more pocket pages, etc. But this is how they will look together so far:

I've found that I like to create one layout (almost like a title page) and then add pocket pages for all of my extra photos rather than creating a traditional 2 page layout. Having a variety of different pages adds visual interest to my albums!

Vacation pages // Enjoy The Journey Classic Kit

Hey all! I'm back with some more vacation layouts from our family trip to Michigan last year. While we were there I wanted to give my kids (mostly my son who looooves baseball!) an opportunity to see an MLB game. So we headed to Comerica Park to see the Tigers play the Twins.

 

I love the little alpha stickers in the kit which are great for creating large titles. I grabbed those woodgrain thickers from a previous kit (I believe the December kit).

During our trip we also headed to Ohio to see A Christmas Story House (totally worth it by the way!!!). It was so much fun seeing the house from one of my all time favorite movies! They also had a museum and a pretty amazing gift shop. If you're anywhere near Cleveland, OH I highly suggest going to check it out!

As I mentioned last week, I'm using a 9x12 album for this trip which gives me a little bit more room than an 8 1/2x11 size. Both layouts were created using the Enjoy The Journey Classic Kit. Next week I'll share how I incorporate pocket pages using the Enjoy the Journey Daily Diary Kit in with my traditional pages.

Michigan

Hey all!! Are you enjoying the "Enjoy the Journey" kits as much as I am?! It's giving me an opportunity to dig into the countless photos I have from our trips back home to Michigan last summer. Today I created the intro page to my album. I chose to use a 9x12 size for my trip album which gives me a bit more room than a 6x8 or 8 1/2 x 11 album bit isn't quite as large and bulky as a traditional 12x12. I am really loving this size!

One of my favorite items in the classic kit is that Crate paper rotary stamp. Love!!! Can't wait to get some more layouts created with these kits!!

Let's Get Lost in the Woods

Good morning!

How much are you loving the projects from our new Let's Get Lost kit?

The April kits are all about travel and adventure and I love what the team has created so far.

Today I have a page to share with you using the Daily Diary kit:

Last fall we traveled a few miles away to the beautiful Ruidoso, New Mexico. It was rainy over night there and the air smelled delicious. There were tall trees surrounding our cabin and deer meadering nearby. It was relaxing and a much-needed break for all of us. Behind our cabin was nothing but hills and trees and one afternoon we spent some time back there just sitting and drawing and taking in the beauty around us. In the picture above  you can see my daughter sitting on the stump of a tree where she drew pictures of the trees and deer. It was so hard for us to leave when it was time to go. 

There are so many fun accents in the Let's Get Lost Daily Diary kit. I added a few enamel stickers above my journaling spot for some extra color and to draw attention to that part of the page. 

More little accents added to one of the 4x6 card. 

I liked the soft touch the paper flower added to this layout and the leather tags in the kit are so fun and add great texture to a project. A strip of washi tape at the bottom finished off my page. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today!
