Boots – Travelers Notebook

March 15, 2019Leave a comment

Hi all,

Cynthia back today with a TN layout using my stash!! Its always good to get into your stash and rediscover some goodies.

If you haven’t already you can check out the process video here.

As always I used the monthly inspiration piece as my starting point. From this months piece I’ve drawn inspiration from the vivid greens, purples, the circle element and the animal reference.

I started with a cut file as it reminded me of the circle. I pulled out my stash of scrap papers, selected a mixture of colours and backed the file. I ended up settling on a bright green for the leaves and a mixture of purples for the flowers.

I used two different pattern papers for the background but both had the same “feel” to them and also stayed within the colours from the inspiration piece.

I added a circle element to the left hand page which helped balance the layout and I also added a chipboard ephemera to bring the purple across to the left side.

To finish the layout off I added my title with fresh green alpha stickers and ensure I repeated these on the other page as well.

Thanks you for reading and I hope you all have a wonderful day.

Hello Lovelies,

this months inspiration piece made me think of my husband as one of the images on the rights looks like waves and my hubby works on the water.

This was perfect as I had just found a selfie of him on his phone and when he told me the story behind it I knew I wanted to document it.

I dived into my stash and found a nice diagonal stripped papers that had all the colours of the inspiration piece. I also grabbed the wood grain paper as it was a nice natural yet could be seen as a more masculine paper.

I wanted the layout to have a comical feel to it, with speech bubble and solid pops of black. I think with the ephemera separated (not clustered) this helps with that feel as well.

I also used a bright green zigzag paper behind to photo to extenuate this vibe. You can see this better in the process video.

Most of the ephemera is from the pink Fresh Studio “Case of The Blahs” collection including the big black Oops title, which brings the whole page altogether.

If you would like to see how the spread come together you can watch the process video here. Oops

Stash it Monday:(Sep 11) Froggie251

Hello Crafty Mavens! Today we have Froggie251 with stash it Monday!

For this layout I used some items that I had in my stash from Close To My Heart. I have been meaning to get a few pages done in my Traveler’s Notebook of our trip this summer to the beach and the Close to My Heart collection was the perfect collection for this. I love the soft beachy colors in the collectio. I also was able to use some ephmera that I picked up on my trip. For the photos I used my HP Sprocket. -Froggie251-
