Combining Scrapbooking & Journaling

 

Hi, Lisa here today.

I'm talking about journaling scrapbooking style today.

I was a scrapbooker for years before I started journaling.

And years later, although I don't create 12x12 style now,  would say that quite often my journaling is heavily inspired by my scrapbooking.

Today I'm creating in my weekly journal.

It's this paper here that has inspired this LO today from Pretty Little Studio.

And I'll add the link to the video here if you'd like to see me creating this page on my YouTube channel.

 

I wanted to make like a patchwork effect as a background.

But I wanted it to look rustic. So instead of cutting the paper, I tore down with a ruler.

I love this effect so much.

I love how this looks. Sticking each square down individually with the rough edges.

For my title work, I cut up one of the die cut papers here from Echo Park.  

Taking the, 'sunshine makes me happy'.

 

And I've continued over on the other side with the same design and this time adding some of the Echo park Element stickers.

This page is so simple but looks so effective.

The perfect Springtime LO.

I hope this has inspired you today.

Have fun with your Spring LO's.
