NEW! Our Story Together Scrapbook Album Kit

Hey girls! Time to share this week's 2nd NEW kit that will be in my shop on Friday. Yesterday, I introduced my 12x12 Born To Explore Page Kit that's great for photos of outdoor adventures. Today, I have a mini album titled Our Story Together that's perfect for wedding photos, an anniversary, a love story, or a memory album!

I created this with a 6x8 inch Doodlebug Design binder in black and the Simple Stories, Simple Vintage Timeless Harmony Collection. It features gorgeous flowers, butterflies, musical notes and instruments, time pieces, and a wonderfully generic theme that can be used for many different photos.

You can use this for pictures of a couple's relationship, an engagement, the ring, a party, or the big day! You could also make this a wedding planner for note taking, reminders, lists, receipts, business cards, and brochures. 

Inside, there are 20 scrapbook pages that include 3 fold-out pages, 1 pocket, 6 flippies, and space for 60+ photos on the layouts and in the clear page protectors. Above is one of those cute flippies. Open it to see ...

... this pretty journaling card! I love the soft muted colors and the little butterflies. This scrapbook also has lots of sayings (like the "Forever" die cut above) that are perfect for an album about love and relationships.

Here is one of the fold-out pages. Check out the dark, delicate floral print on the flap mixed with the lighter, more rustic wood print in the background. Such a great combination. And that lovely "timeless & true" card is another flippie with space for 2 photos.

I love a pocket page filled with pretty journaling cards and photos mats, but it's also a perfect spot for memorabilia. Add an invitation, love notes, your vows, greeting cards, tickets, receipts, or travel plans.

If you're using this as a memory album, add an obituary, handwritten letters, a family tree, military papers, a death certificate, or extra photos.

This album can also be used for an anniversary party, a special weekend of celebrations, a garden party, a remembrance, or a celebration of life. 

It would also be a "beautiful" handmade gift idea for an engagement, a bridal shower, or a wedding.🩷

These pages have classic images of candles, birds, lanterns, antique cameras and telephones, musical notes, typewriters, and vintage cars. So, if you have a more traditional style ... you're going to love this!

I hope you like my NEW Our Story Together Scrapbook Album. It makes a gorgeous keepsake for memories of a relationship, a wedding, an anniversary, and ... would also be a beautiful place to document the life of someone who's passed. 

The kit and the premade will be available in my shop on Friday along with my 12x12 Born To Explore Page Kit. Have a great day and happy crafting! 😊

NEW! 12x12 Born To Explore Scrapbook Layouts

Hi friends! Today, I'm sharing one of this week's TWO new kits that will be available in my shop on Friday. I've had so much fun creating mini albums with the new Bella Blvd Adventure Awaits Collection, so ... this kit is for my all my 12x12 scrappers out there. Say hello to my new 12x12 Born To Explore Page Layouts!

These pages are so fun! I just love this collection and how it highlights all types of outdoor activities. It's perfect for a vacation in nature, a weekend at the lake, a cabin, hiking, beautiful views, a park, camping, waterfalls, fishing, kayaking, biking, swimming, BBQs, an RV, and yummy s'mores by the fire.

There are 6 scrapbook pages that include 3 coordinating layouts (like the two in the photo above). The stickers, die cuts, and flower print on this page are so good! I mean ... how cute is that camper, the colorful wildflowers, that round camping scene, and the butterflies?! ✨ 

On this layout, I added the River Valley paper with its dotted trails and winding streams. Great for pictures of hiking, exploring, paddle boarding, or white water river rafting.  

Each of these pages have multiple photo mats with space for 21 pictures and a few spots for journaling.

This cute bear is my favorite. He's got his hiking boots on like he's ready for an adventure! Have you and your family (or friends) been exploring this year? Whether you've taken a relaxing nature walk or a rugged backcountry trail, gone horseback riding or taken a leisurely bike ride ... these pages work for it all.

Maybe you've spent time fly fishing, swimming, or tubing down stream. Do you enjoy boating on the lake or waterskiing? What about yard games like bean bag toss (cornhole), bocce ball, and horseshoes on the grass? It all sounds so fun, and guess what? These layouts work for those pics too!

If the great outdoors is your "happy place" and you have memorable photos to save, be sure to visit my shop on Friday when this 12x12 Born To Explore Layout Kit will be available. Until then, keep an eye out for this week's kit #2!

Thanks for stopping by the blog and have a wonderfully crafty day! 😊

NEW! You Me and the Sea Scrapbook Album Kit

Hello ladies! Who's ready to see this week's second NEW kit that will be in my shop on Friday? Yesterday, I introduced my 12x12 Hello Sunshine Layouts filled with a bright colorful summer vibe. Today, I'm sharing a new mini album titled You Me and the Sea that has a more traditional beach and nautical theme. Both projects are just perfect for the season. 

I designed this album with the Simple Stories, Sand and Sea Collection. It features coastal images, anchors, lighthouses, seashells, flowers, beachwear, and a classic red, white, and blue color scheme. So, it makes a beautiful keepsake for summer photos. 

Add memories of a beach vacation, July 4th weekend (remember it's the 250th anniversary of the United States!), fun with family and friends, a cruise, exploring an island, boating, fishing, or touring a lighthouse.

For the album, I used one of my clear Acrylic Vertical 6x8 Albums. It has 2 covers made of high quality 1/8" acrylic, white card stock pages with fun interactive elements, and 3 binding rings.

Inside, there are 16 scrapbook pages that include 2 fold-out pages, 2 pockets, 7 flippies (see one above), and space for 35 photos of your favorite moments. 

Above is one of the awesome fold-out pages. I covered the front flap in a navy blue gingham and added a flippie on top with space inside for two pictures. Open the page and you'll see ...

... this! I've added two photo mats for larger pictures or journaling. The red and white stripes, the blue leaf pattern, and the vintage style "memories by the sea" sticker add such charm! 

Whether you take a long trip or a weekend getaway, be sure to get pictures of your beach cottage / rental, the ocean views, sunrises or sunsets, swimming, collecting seashells or sea glass, building sand castles, fishing, and fun with your favorite people. 

If you explore the beach town or surrounding areas, be sure to visit the local lighthouse. I love seeing these, learning about the history, and after a bit of a climb ... the view! It's amazing. Trust me, it's worth the steps. 

Here's the second fold-out page with lots of big beautiful flowers. I created another flippie on the front flap and added a cute little seashell sticker. Inside, there are ...

... these pretty pages. How cute is that red and white striped bow sticker?! I love it. I added more photo mats, a hat, and a colorful journaling card.   

This is one of the pocket pages. I tucked some really interesting cards inside that can be used for journaling or as photo mats, but you can also save memorabilia here. Add postcards, small maps, notes, itineraries, tickets, brochures, or extra pics.

If your summer plans include a beach vacation, boating, fishing, a cruise, or enjoying an island adventure ... you need my new You Me and the Sea Scrapbook Album. It's a super FUN project to create and makes a beautiful summer keepsake. 

As a reminder, this album and my new 12x12 Hello Sunshine Layouts will be available in my shop on Friday as DIY kits. And don't forget to pick up an Acrylic Display Stand so you can display this pretty mini! 😊

Hi crafty girls! I have something bright and cheerful and super fun to share with you today. It's the first of TWO new scrapbooking kits that will be in my shop on Friday and I'm sure it will put a smile on your face! It's a 12x12 6-page layout kit titled Hello Sunshine and it's filled with joy. 🌞

Check out these fun summer colors! They're part of Bella Blvd's Walking On Sunshine Collection that includes playful images of rainbows, butterflies, bees, kites, suns, clouds, houses, and trees. Love, love, love it.

Isn't this first page so cute?! It has lots of fun circle and scallop shapes that mimic the rainbows and suns. I included a few little butterflies, a bee, and a kite that add so much whimsy to the fabulous summer vibe.

These 6 scrapbook pages (3 coordinating layouts) include 1 flippie and space for 20 photos of summer, fun with family and friends, backyard shenanigans, your home, birthdays, a neighborhood BBQ, game night, and wonderful everyday moments.

You can also add pictures of your garden, planting new flowers, a sunny day at the pool, a lemonade stand, or an afternoon bike ride. Yep, it definitely feels like summer!

More circles and scallops on this page. I'm loving the red and pink border sticker and all the tiny polka dots! 

Here's the flippie I mentioned earlier. It has a cute neighborhood scene on the front with space inside for 2 photos. Perfect for your summer memories.

These 6 multi-photo layouts are embellished with lots of fun details. There are die cuts, cardstock stickers, colorful tags, and little epoxy stars and dots for a bit of shine.

I hope you love my NEW 12x12 Hello Sunshine Layout Kit as much as I do. These pages are perfect for your warm weather photos, are fun to create, and make a great addition to any album! The kit and premade will be available in my shop on Friday, along with a 2nd new project. Have a wonderful day! 😊

Explore Acrylic Mini Album with Bella Blvd

Hey guys! Who's ready for a fun new project? Today, I'm sharing a cute little scrapbook that's perfect for photos of summer, fall, and outdoor adventures. It's titled Explore and it's my latest Bella Blvd Design Team Project. I'll be adding the instructions for it to my shop soon but until then, here's a look inside ...

I created this with Bella's awesome new Adventure Awaits Collection. I used it in my larger 6x8 Explore Adventure Scrapbook Album as well and love the happy colors, cute animals, and fun outdoorsy prints.

Since I wanted this project to be smaller, I used my 6x6 inch Acrylic Peek-A-Boo Circles Album in white. The front cover has circle cut-outs that allow pretty papers and cute embellishments to "peek" through. 

At the bottom of the cover there's space for a title, so I added the "explore" word from the Explore Together Puffy Stickers (link below). This added visual interest to the front with a little shine and a bit of dimension.

Here is the first page that shows through the cover's cut-outs. I cut circles out of pattern papers using 1/2", 1",1.25", 1.5", 2", and 3" punches, then chose a few embellishments. My favorite is the Darling Deer Bella-pops. She really IS darling! I lined up and adhered everything just behind the cut-outs, then added the saying from the Ephemera Words and the green scalloped puffy sticker.

Inside, there are 12 white scrapbook pages. I covered them in pattern papers, then created some fun interactive elements. Above, is a fold-out page made with the Borders polka dot paper and the Wander Clouds print. I added a flippie on the front of the flap using a 3x4 card from the Daily Details. Then to embellish, I chose a flower die cut from the Ephemera Icons and a few epoxy Moonlit stickers.

Above, I used the Trail Notes paper in the background, added a large photo mat in the center, and created a flippie using another 3x4 card. Then, I decorated the page with the rainbow striped tab and the "explore" pennant from the Ephemera Words (links below). 

On this layout, I made a big flippie with a 4x6 card from the Daily Details. What a cute camping scene! It's a perfect spot for 2 photos of the lake, an RV, hiking, beautiful waterfalls, mountain views, fishing, rafting down stream, biking, ATVs, and ... "campfires, stories, and starry skies"! 

I love a good pocket page and this one doesn't disappoint. It's a great space for extra photos, notes, or small memorabilia. Perfect for tickets to a park or a fun activity, postcards, a small map, or a brochure. 

To make it, I chose the Forest Friends polka dot for the background, the Wander clouds stripe on the front of the pocket, and the scalloped Doohickey border sticker along the edge to visually separate them. I tucked a few journaling cards / photo mats inside and added a cute tag with jute twine. To embellish, I chose the flowers from the Ephemera Icons and the "Explore" from the Ephemera Words (links below).

If you or someone you know loves visiting parks, the lake, a cabin, the mountains, and all kinds of nature inspired activities ... then this mini album is a great project for you. It holds about 20 photos and makes a perfect keepsake for vacation photos or random outdoor memories. And it's an amazing gift idea!

If you'd like to recreate this fun project, the white 6x6 inch Acrylic Peek-A-Boo Circles Album is available in my shop now. The simple, step-by-step instructions for it will be in my shop soon!

Oh! And don't forget my Acrylic Display Stand. The clear acrylic practically disappears and it's a great way to display your wonderful memories and creative work.

I hope you enjoyed my Explore Scrapbook Album and the fabulous new Bella Blvd Adventure Awaits Collection. Thanks for stopping by the blog today. Below are the product links for easy shopping, and ... happy scrapping! 😊
