Trying Something Different Today

 

Hello!!

I was so inspired this week and I'm excited to share with you.

It all started off by this one paper.

 It's from Pretty Little Studio and it's the Love is Kind collection which you can see here. 

I wasn't quite sure how I was going to use it first, but I knew I NEEDED it LOL.

You know that feeling right?!

As it was, I decided to do something different to what I'd imagined.

And this is it.

I had loads of photos of Disney snacks.

I don't like just adding lots of photos to a page, I like to see a page and have a design, so I decided to cut out the banners and try out this idea instead.

I've layered up the banners using clear tape. 

The kraft paper that I've journaled on, the RR sticker and the sting bow at the top were all on the packaging of the donut in the photo : )

  Then on the other side I added 4 of the banners.

And each banner then flips up.

It's a great way to add lots of photos and journaling and keeping the page so tidy looking.

I also wanted to share the cute ephemera that I've used here.

I've decorated this page using some pieces but look how much is still left over.

And if you are wondering about this cute little container, it had our banana loaf in that we had in Disney. So cute : )

Theres so many cute pieces in this collection.

Take a look at everything here. 

I love it all so much. 

If you'd like to see the page coming together, I have a video here.

I hope this has inspired you.

Happy Scrapping.

Mixing The Old With The New

 Hello!!

Lisa here today.

I'm chatting about mixing the old with the new.

Let's start with the OLD.

I transformed this old vintage book into a journal last year.

You can see the video where I did this here.

And today I'm adding some new pieces from Echo park to tell my story.

I was inspired today by this paper here.

I loved the fact that it would help me share the stories from this Disney day.

I used an original page in this book which has amazing illustrations. It's so colourful.

I wasn't sure how this would work with the new scrapbooking papers but it turned out so well and was so complimentary. 

I added some of the paper and also some stickers from this 12x12 sheet. 

The stickers 'full of love' were actually just one sticker and I cut it to make 2 and this worked so well as a title : )

  

On the other side I wanted to add more photos and stories.

This square piece was cut and I created a little flip.

Revealing more photos and another story.

I added a few more of the stickers too.

 I'm so happy with how this page turned out.

The mix of old and new just go so well together.  

I'm in love with those colours.

I hope you like this mix too.

I do have a video here if you'd like to watch it coming together.

And if you want to check out this Echo Park collection, it's here.

love
