Bella Blvd ~ Time to Travel ✈️ #1

Hi, it’s Anna back on the blog today! I’m back to share my third and final project with Bella Blvd Time to Travel and it’s a project life page…

I haven’t posted a project life page in a while, but I do use them a lot! I find them so helpful when making albums. They are a great way to add in extra photos that you may not have used or would have otherwise taken up lots of pages in your album. 

For this one, I’ve continued with documenting the travel day of our recent holiday. So I’ve used pictures of us and food etc on the plane that I probably wouldn’t have done a whole page on. It has also provided a whole pocket for journaling. 

You can find a variety of sizes of pocket pages in the shop here.

Lots of collections come with cut apart papers that are perfect to use in these pocket pages. Time to Travel is no different, so I cut apart a few pieces from the daily details paper.

I usually pair cut apart papers with project life cards, which come in a variety of designs and perfectly fit the pockets. 

You can find project life cards in the shop here. 

Once I’ve decided on the style of pocket page I’m using. I always start by laying out the photos I want to use and finding an appropriate card to mount them on. You can of course also use full 6x4, 3x2 etc photos without the need for any cards. I also like to leave a couple of spaces for cards on their own/ titles/ journaling boxes. 

Once I’m happy with the layout, I decide on any embellishments that can be added. 

I have used some of the puffy stickers from the collection to add in some extra detail.  I added in one of the little aeroplanes from the puffy stickers to the map to show our journey. In the bottom left pocket I added in a journaling box with the ‘travel’ alphas from the puffy stickers too. I will record details from our journey here. 

Thanks so much for looking!

 I hope this inspires you to have a go at a project life page.

See you next month, when I’ll be working with Simple Stories Into the Wild!

Bella Blvd ~ Time to Travel 🚐 #2

Hi, it’s Anna back on the blog today! I’m sharing my second layout using Bella Blvd Time to Travel. I’m documenting our recent holiday and travel day in particular! This page focuses on the first part of our journey and finally being able to go!

I began by adding some distress oxide (in the shade blueprint sketch) lightly to a sheet of white bazzill. I knew roughly where I wanted to place my photos, so I placed them on the cardstock to make sure the distress oxide would show. 

I then gutted a sheet of ‘In the Clouds’ and trimmed down my cardstock by about 3cm each side and adhered it to the in the clouds paper. I also hand stitched around the edge of the white cardstock.

I mounted my photographs onto some navy blue bazzill cardstock and also selected one of the cut apart phrases from ‘Daily details’ to accompany them.

I fussy cut the sunshine from the ‘daily details’ paper and completed my layout by adding some of the puffy stickers.

I added a title using the LDSR Creative Lovely watercolour - small puffy alpha stickers. 

Thanks so much for looking! I’ve got one more layout to share with you before I move on to another collection! 

See you then!

Bella Blvd ~ Time to Travel 🌎

Hi all, it’s Anna back on the blog today! 

For my next few blog posts I will be working with a new collection from Bella Blvd - Time to Travel! This was perfect for me as we’ve recently returned from a very much long awaited holiday! 

My first layout documents a couple of pictures of a few of us ‘ready for takeoff’.

Starting with a sheet of white bazzill, I cut the b side of ‘love this place’ paper diagonally adhering it to the left side of the layout. I then used my cameo to cut out an aeroplane cutfile using the b side of ‘baggage claim’ paper. 

I then cut a title cutfile by Bella Blvd and backed it with the b side of the ‘photo op’ patterned paper. I fussy cut a few of the tickets from the ‘baggage claim’ paper and mounted two photographs on to the b side of  the ‘road trip’ paper.

I fussy cut the passport and little aeroplane from the ‘daily details’ paper and tucked them in either side of my photos. I completed my layout by adding some of the puffy stickers from the collection. 

Thanks so much for looking! See you soon with another layout using this collection.
