New! 12x12 I Love Spring Scrapbook Layout Kit

Hi ladies! Ready for a peek at the 2nd NEW kit that will be in my shop on Friday? Yesterday, I introduced my 12x12 Let's Party Layout Kit and today, I have something wonderful for the upcoming season. It's another page kit titled I Love Spring that is perfect for photos of every day, Mother's Day, Easter, and sunshine filled memories!

I designed these with the Echo Park, In Full Bloom Collection that features pretty flowers, butterflies, birds, soft pastel colors, bees, umbrellas, bonnets, and lots of springtime sayings.

There are 6 scrapbook pages (3 coordinating layouts) with 1 flippie and space for 25 photos. 

These pages are wonderfully generic so you can use them for lots of different occasions. Add pictures of spring, fun with family and friends, a birthday celebration, an anniversary, a spring bridal shower, a baby shower or gender reveal, and everyday moments.

If you love being outdoors, add photos from a fun day at the park, a picnic, your beautiful garden, a visit to a butterfly museum, a botanical garden, a flower festival, a neighborhood BBQ, and backyard games.

With Easter and Mother's Day coming up, you could also use them for Sunday brunch, family gatherings, a church event, or a spring vacation.

NEW! 12x12 Let's Party Birthday Scrapbook Layout Kit

Hey scrappy friends! It's a big week here at Artsy Albums with lots of fun things happening. Today, I'm sharing the first of 2 NEW kits that will be in my shop on Friday. Tomorrow, I'll share the second one. I will also be traveling to Texas for the My Crafty Galentine Retreat taking place this weekend. Stay tuned for photos ... I can't wait to see everyone there and teach a class at this fun event. Then on Thursday, I'll introduce my latest Doodlebug Design Team Project. Yay!

As for today's kit ... it's titled Let's Party and has six 12x12 scrapbook layouts filled with colorful balloons, streamers, cakes, and presents. They're perfect for ALL ages and ANY type of birthday celebration!

I designed these pages with the Carta Bella, They Say It's Your Birthday Collection and I love the whimsical party hats, noisemakers, and decorations. All the festive things you'd find at a birthday party, and ... everything you need to highlight your special moments.

These 6 scrapbook pages (3 coordinating layouts) include 1 pocket, 1 flippie, and space for 28 photos. 

Theey're great for photos of a quiet dinner of two, a small family gathering at home, or a full blown party with tons of friends!

Save photos of the birthday girl or boy, group shots with guests, the cake, venue, the invitation, decorations, balloons, and fun activities. Don't forget key moments like singing "Happy Birthday", blowing out the candles, friends interacting, and the gift opening. 

Here's the cute pocket. I tucked 3 colorful tags inside that can be used for journaling or as photo mats. You could also add small memorabilia here, like ... tickets, receipts, or notes.

Add photos of a weekend getaway, having coffee with your bestie, brunch with your mom, or a birthday party for the kiddos. These layouts make a great addition to any album and document all the fun!

My new 12x12 Let's Party Birthday Page Kit will be available in my shop on Friday. I hope you enjoy saving your memories on them. Be sure to check back here tomorrow for a 2nd new kit. Thanks for visiting the blog and have a wonderful day!😊

12x12 Love You Valentine's Day Layout

Hi scrappers! It's time for my latest Bella Blvd Design Team Project, and ... it's National Puzzle Day! So, I created a 12x12 scrapbook page with a big beautiful patchwork heart that reminds me of a puzzle. I also got inspiration for the design from a quilt my grandmother made me when I was a child. I designed it with the My Life 365 Collection, some puffy and enamel shapes, and 2 pink Bella Besties prints, making this layout a sweet spot for your Valentine's Day photos. 🧩🩷 

To make this, I used black card stock and a sheet of Bella Besties graph and dot in punch for the base. Then, I designed the heart shape I wanted and cut 5 out of different 12x12 patterned papers. I cut them up in pieces exactly the same and mixed up the patterns until I liked the patchwork design. Then, I pieced the heart back together like a puzzle and adhered the pieces to white card stock.

I wanted to add a little bit of stitching, so I used black embroidery floss to sew a line around the heart. At the end, I tied a cute bow and added some epoxy hearts, a puffy star, and cute puffy dots from the collection. 

In the lower left corner, I matted two black and white photos and adhered them to the heart. Then I added a few more epoxy hearts, a black arrow from the Puffy Trinkets stickers, and more dots.

 

How cute is this Be Mine Bella-pops?! I love the shine of the heart shaped hot air balloon, the little blue clouds, and the dimension it adds to the page. And just underneath, I added the "Love You" die cut from the Ephemera Words and sprinkled a few more puffy stickers around.

Finally, I added two epoxy hearts that came with the Be Mine Bella-pops on top of the hot air balloons in the print above. Can you see them? They are the cute pink polka dot hearts. What a fun little detail!

I hope my 12x12 Love You Layout gives you a little inspiration for saving your Valentine's Day photos. Bella's My Life 365 Collection is a great staple to have on hand for creating different projects all throughout the year! To see more things I made with it, visit ...

NEW! Welcome Winter Scrapbook Album Kit

Happy Friday! I have so many new things to share with you today. First, there's a new Crafty Girl Valentine's Day shirt in the shop that's filled with cute crafting supplies, hearts, and beautiful roses. I think you're going to love its pretty shades of red, pink, and aqua blue! I've also added some mystery boxes to the shop that are packed with great supplies! And ... I've added a fabulous little winter acrylic album with a gorgeous laser cut snowflake cover. Take a look ...

This is the first time I've created a kit with a design this intricate and I love it! The album is 6x6 inches and made with white acrylic and a wonderful Lori Whitlock snowflake cutting file. This lace pattern is stunning and looks great against the blue background, don't you think? 

I also used Bella Blvd's new Snowflake Season Collection. It has such cute snowmen, polar bears, snow covered houses, reindeer, and the funniest little moose. I created my latest Hive exclusive kit titled Snow Place Like Home with it and it was super fun. So, I really wanted to make a special acrylic mini with it for everyone!

Inside the front cover, I added the chipboard house, the little bluebird, and "snow day, hooray!" die cut. 

The album has 18 scrapbook pages that include 2 fold-out pages, 2 pockets, 1 flippie, 1 snowflake acetate page, and space for 28 photos of your fun winter moments!

Add photos of your family all bundled up, a winter vacation, skiing or sledding, building snowmen, or your beautiful home covered in fresh fallen snow.

Here's a colorful page that's perfect for "snowflake season". It has a cute little polar bear, snowflakes, and a bright blue tag with ribbon. 

This pocket is so whimsical with it's colorful stripes and polka dot scalloped border. I tucked a few cards inside for journaling or extra photos but you can also add memorabilia. Save the special little mementos from your activities like lift tickets, postcards, brochures, or matchbooks.

And check out this pretty acetate page filled with colorful snowflakes! I love transparent pages. Such a fun element!

This new Welcome Winter Mini Album, the NEW Crafty Girl Valentine's Day shirts, and the mystery boxes are now available in the shop. Hop over there next and load up your cart before these fun new items are gone! Have a wonderful day! 😊

Let It Snow Winter Mini Album with Doodlebug

Hi ladies! The winter temperatures have arrived and if you're like me ... you're spending more time indoors. So, I have a fun new project idea for you! Today, I'm sharing my latest Doodlebug Design Team Project, and ... I've also added the instructions for it to my shop. It's a pretty mini album titled Let It Snow that's perfect for winter photos of family, friends, fun in the snow, a ski vacation, and everyday memories. 

I designed this with Doodlebug's adorable Snow Much Fun Collection and my Acrylic Circle Petal Album. It has a great shape with cut-outs on the cover so, it shows off all the beautiful patterns, super cute images, and gorgeous colors. This happy scrapbook is sure to chase away the winter blues!

Inside the cover, I added a pretty pistachio snowflake print in the background, then embellished with 2 die cuts from the Chit Chat. And for a little winter bling, I added sparkling mini jewels to each of the snowflakes.

I cut 4 white card stock pages out for this. The Acrylic Circle Petal Album does NOT come with pages ~ only the 2 acrylic covers and a binding ring. But, you can easily use one of the covers as a template to trace and cut as many pages as you'd like. OR, use a circle cutter, Silhouette, or Cricut machine (links below).

This first page is the one that shows through the cover's cut-outs, so I used a 2" circle punch and lots of colorful pattern papers to decorate it. Then, I added a photo mat made from the beautiful blue jean paper called Wintery Woods. 

This next page is filled with cuteness! The print in the background has ahh-dorable snowmen, polar bears, penguins, yetis, skiers, and more! I added a square photo mat and embellished with some fun die cuts and a word bubble sticker.

I added 2 handy dandy pockets to this scrapbook. For the one above, I decorated the front with a scalloped sticker and more die cuts. Then, I tucked some really cute journaling cards inside. These are perfect for dates, names, events, locations, and great stories.

Here, I created a folding card with space inside for 2 photos, AND ... another fabulous little pocket. I used a 3x4 card to create the flippie and adhered it to the page on 3 sides only. This way, I could tuck the Bits & Pieces tags and clipboard in the top for journaling!

Look how cute this album is sitting on my clear Acrylic Display Stand. It's perfect for showing off your minis ... especially those fun shapes that don't always want to stand up on their own.

To see my spring version of this acrylic album that's made with Doodlebug's Over The Rainbow Collection, click here.

If you'd like to recreate today's Let It Snow Scrapbook, the instructions AND the Acrylic Circle Petal Album are available in my shop. All product links below. Thanks for stopping by the blog and I hope you have a wonderful day! 😊
