Summer Scrapbook Box - April Blog Hop with Lori Whitlock

Hello everyone! Today is Lori Whitlock's April Blog Hop and my blog is the first stop on the hop. But be sure to visit Lori's site too because she has a sale and more great products for you!

For my project today, I created a Summer Scrapbook Photo Box with several of Lori's fabulous cutting files including her file folders. It's such a fun and creative way to save your memories!

To start, I used a chipboard recipe box that I found in my stash. I think it was made by Creative Imaginations or Darice. I decorated it with the Echo park, Summer Bliss Collection that was also designed by Lori. I used mostly 6x6 papers to cover the box, then I embellished with lots of cute stickers.

I chose the Key and Lock Set Cutting File for the front, as well as the Summer Titles File for the "Summer Fun" words. Then, I used the Palm Trees Cutting File for the cute pieces on the side (links below).

Lori's 4x6 Clipped Edge File Folders worked perfectly to create the pages for my photo box. I made them out of white card stock, then covered them in colorful 6x6 papers, photo mats, and stickers.

My new photo box looks so cute sitting on my desk, and now ... I have some favorite summer memories at my finger tips!
