Our Love Story Album using Simple Stories Romance

As papercrafters, sometimes a paper collection comes along that makes you immediately think of a set of photos, an event, or a memory.  When I saw the Romance collection, I knew some beautiful pictures of my son and daughter-in-law would work perfectly in an album.

I love the vintage, romantic feel of this paper line.  The cover was easy to embellish by layering several 3x4 cards.

These gorgeous photos were taken by Hillary Leah Photography here in Georgia, and I just love that the pictures worked so well with the beautiful blues and pinks in Romance.  

I used the 12x12 collection kit, along with the chipboard pieces and  4x6 stickers.

I hope I've inspired you to use Romance for lots of different projects, not just Valentine's Day.  It is so pretty for weddings, date nights, everyday family photos, or even baby pictures!  Enjoy!

Valentine Mini Album using So Punny

Valentine's Day is just around the corner and for me, it was love at first sight when I saw the So Punny collection. Making a Valentine mini with these colors and darling die cuts was so much fun. I decided to create a horizontal waterfall style album so that all of the yummy papers could really be seen.

 

I think that little clock is my favorite sticker, but I'm "cuckoo" for all of them so who am I kidding? And this time there are TWO icon sticker sheets ... more to LOVE!

 

Do you see those tiny heart sprinkles? Lol, love those!

 

Those new 3x4 cards are also awesome!!  Love them for pocket scrapbooking, cards, and of course, mini albums!

 

That little scallop border sticker from the This & That sticker sheet is also a favorite ... I wish I had a whole sticker page of those!!

 

Thanks for stopping by and letting me share my Valentine mini with you!

First Snow Layout using Doodlebug Cut Files

Hello my friends! It doesn't snow every year in Georgia but when it does, it's a big deal. And seeing snow for the first time EVER is a really big deal! I created this layout of my granddaughter and loved having the Frosty Friends cut files to bring the page to life. 

I layered the pieces with foam tape and a little bit of Doodlebug's sugar coated glitter, used paper and sprinkles from the Polar Pals collection, and tucked a little journaling tag behind the adorable penguin.

I created the title on my own using Lori Whitlock's Everyday font and Doodlebug's Snowflake from the Here Comes Santa files (links below).

 

I also used the Birdie, Penguin, Trees and Mittens cut files from the Frosty Friends Collection to make this layout (links below).

 

Since the Polar Pals collection is older and may be hard to find, I've added links to a great substitute ... Doodlebug's Winter Wonderland. Stay warm and happy scrappin'!

This collection is filled with pretty, bright colors so I used a black Simple Stories binder album (links below). I love the pop of black ... my favorite!

 

 

The adorable "punny" icons and sayings make me laugh every time. So clever! Who comes up with these? Happy little album right here!

 

 

You know how I love my sprinkles ... well, these precious tiny hearts (seen above and below) are scattered throughout. I put them everywhere! :)

 

 

I'm really excited about the Chit Chat pieces. There are words, quotes, and speech bubbles. Great for my mini albums and perfect for all of you card makers and scrappers out there.   

 

 

I can't wait to add a picture of my 1 year old granddaughter to the page above ... she IS juice the cutest!

 

My granddaughter calls my husband Pop ... so I guess we know who's pictures will be going on these pages?! Ha! He will love it. 💗

This cute lil' family album and the Doodlebug collection is "so punny"! Lol! I just love it.  Thanks for stopping by today and happy crafting!
