2-Page Summer Layout with Page Maps & Doodlebug

Hi everyone! Doodlebug teamed up with Becky Fleck and the Page Maps team this month and we are playing with some of the new July maps. Becky sent me a great 2-page layout with lots of photo spots ... perfect for summer pictures of my adorable nieces!

Here's the PageMaps July 2015 12x12 double :

And here's my take on the design:

I used Doodlebug SunKissed Collection, along with doilies, stickers and glitter sprinkles. I also used Fancy Frills border stickers ... and here's a tip:  when you buy Fancy Frills border stickers, buy 2! They are true 12" long stickers and if you buy 2 sets, you'll be able to create borders across both 12x12 pages like I did here!  

Thanks for stopping by today!  Here's a list of all the Doodlebug goodies I used on this layout:

Shaped School Cards with Lori Whitlock

Hi everyone! In Georgia, school starts back in August so I decided to create a one of Lori's adorable new shaped cards for today's post over on her blog.

For the apple card, I decided to add a "thank you" sentiment to the base book piece.  I used Lori's "Favorite" font to type my phrase, and then I did a print & cut on cream card stock. 

 

I love the print & cut feature of my CAMEO because I can add any word I want. It would even be cute to add a teacher's name to the front of these cards!

Lori has lots of these fun shaped cards in her shop so please hop over there and check them out! Have fun creating!!

New! Adventure Let's Go Travel Scrapbook Album Kit

Hello everyone! Today, I'm sharing my NEW scrapbook kit titled Adventure Let's Go. This travel themed mini album is the perfect keepsake for your all your fun vacation photos and it's in the shop now. Summer is a great time to explore the world, visit new places, and see the sights. So, if you've enjoyed time away or have upcoming plans ... this is the project for YOU!

I designed it with a 6x8 inch Simple Stories binder in navy and the fabulous Pink Paislee, Atlas Collection. This scrapbook would make an amazing travel journal to take on a trip, the perfect place to save photos of your vacation once you return, or a wonderful gift for a travel companion.

 

On the cover, I love how the "Adventure" title bends around the rainbow and airplane. And on the inside, I've added lots of colorful papers, embellishments, and tags.

There are 20 scrapbook pages in this beautiful album that include 2 pockets, 4 divided photo sleeves, and space for at least 42 photos throughout the book.

I always create my albums so that photos can easily tuck under embellishments, and I always use only acid-free, photo-safe supplies.

Thank for stopping by the blog today. Hop over to my shop next to see this awesome album and the newest kits, premades, instructions, supplies, and t-shirts!
