Faith Scrapbook Album with Simple Stories

Happy Memorial Day everyone! Today, I'm sharing my latest Simple Stories Design Team Project. I made an album that highlights my life this year and added everything from time spent with family and friends, to trips and celebrations. I also wanted to include my spiritual side with prayers, bible study notes, etc. so ... the new Faith Collection was perfect.

I designed it with a 6x8 Simple Stories binder in navy. On the cover, I layered white card stock with 12x12 and 6x8 papers. The title "Hope, Faith, and Miracles" is a 3x4 elements card and it was perfect. Especially since we welcomed a new little miracle into our family last year! 

I really like incorporating the 4x6 vertical page protectors into my Sn@p albums ... it allows me to include extra journaling spots, photos, and the wonderful 4x6 element cards. 

Our little miracle doesn't look too happy in this photo, lol. 😉

I make a lot of flip cards (aka flippies!) and pockets in my albums. I think it makes the album more interesting and it helps me get more photos and journaling on my pages.

I love this pretty pocket page. I added a large card to it that can be used for a photo, journaling, or as I did ... prayer notes.

This "pray" sticker is from the cardstock sticker pack. These packs are great. They have letters, numbers, tabs, icons, and small captions that are perfect for smaller spaces like mini albums and planners.

Here are photos from a recent trip my husband and I took to Greenville, SC. We went on a Segway tour of the city. If you've never done one, you should! It's lots of fun and pretty easy after a few minutes of practice.  

For Mother's Day we visited my in-laws in Chattanooga. I usually don't take tons of photos on weekend trips, so my Sn@p album pockets are perfect for documenting the highlights. The chipboard globe in the Faith collection reminds me of travel .... so cute!

What can I say ... this little sweetness has my heart!  Having a granddaughter has been one of the biggest joys in my life. I'm sure when I look back on this album in the future most of the photos will be of her, lol!  

Thanks for stopping by the blog and letting me share a few pages of my album with you! Below are the links for the products used to create this. Happy scrappin'!

A Day at the Zoo Scrapbook Album with Doodlebug

Hey everyone! Today, I have an awesome new scrapbook album kit to share with you titled A Day At The Zoo and it's filled with lions and tigers and bears, oh my!  But, no need to fear ... these cuties are from the Doodlebug, At The Zoo Collection and they are precious. Take a look ... 

To purchase the instructions for this album visit:

At The Zoo Scrapbook Instructions

I designed this with a 6x6 inch Bo Bunny Bare Naked Binder Album. It's perfect for photos of a zoo, Disney's Animal Kingdom theme park, a safari, a birthday party, a baby shower, an animal themed bedroom or nursery, a petting zoo, or a school field trip.

Inside, there are lots of wonderful colors and so many cute animals. Doesn't this first page look like they're posing for a group photo? I love it. I turned the scene into a fun, interactive flip-up card (aka the flippie) ...

... with space inside for two photos. On the left, I added a scalloped circle with a journaling spot and a toucan bird. You could add dates, the location, event, names, or ... if this is a gift for someone, add a short message.

The panda paper above kills me with all those cute little bear faces. What a great spot for a photo. And on the right, I added another folding element. The gorilla card flips up to reveal ...

... this sweet turtle and a white photo mat. I'm loving the red and lime green with the black and white papers.

My albums always include lots photo storage and space to document your memories. This pocket page is a great example. It has journaling cards and room for extra pictures, notes, or memorabilia. You can store tickets to the zoo or theme park, a brochure, a small map, an invitation, or a postcard here.

Hop over to my shop to get my cute A Day at the Zoo Scrapbook Album Kit. You're going to have so much fun creating it. Thanks for visiting!

Update: This kit has sold out but the instructions are available in my shop. They are simple, step-by-step, and include full color photos of each page. Links for the instructions and the products used are below. Happy scrappin'!

Strawberry Card - May Blog Hop with Lori Whitlock

Hi everyone! It's Traci and it's a wonderfully busy day here at Artsy Albums! We are listing a brand new album kit in the shop and we're joining the creative team over at Lori Whitlock Designs for our May Blog Hop. 

Today, I'm sharing one of Lori's cute folding box cards. It's a carton full of berries and little white flowers. I just love it! I made this as a Mother's Day card but you could easily change the saying and use it for any occasion.

Some other fun sayings might be ... I Love You Berry Much, Thanks a Bunch or You're Berry Special!

This SVG file of Lori's is actually called Box Card Blackberry Carton (link below). But, since I love strawberries and the color red, I changed mine up a bit. That's the fun part of scrappin' ... we can be as creative as we want! 

These box cards fold flat for delivery and storage. I hope you have as much fun with Lori's SVG files as I am!  Be sure to visit her blog. She has so many wonderful products to share with you.
