Autumn Mini

Mini Album created for Maya Road  -  WE -

Hello there!

Hope you all are doing well, and are getting ready for the upcoming season!!

Autumn is my favorite season, I love the cozy feeling, colors, smells, and textures it brings.  I was lucky to be asked to collaborate to a new Maya Road release, "GOLDEN DAYS".   This Card kit serves dual purpose as it can easily be adapted into a mini album.    

                   


If you are a Fall lover, then this it was made for you,too.  It features Fancy Pants Designs' Golden Days collection, a selection of  Maya Road products, a exclusive stamp set, and a pair of flair buttons.  The kit is just gorgeous, and perfect to document a few highlights of the Fall season.  Here is a quick walk through what i created with this kit:

I hope that you enjoy the mini album.  Feel free to visit Maya Road to check what else can be created with this kit.  A step by step tutorial on how to recreate this album can also be found in the Maya Road blog.   So stop by their blog to check all the details.


As always let me know if you have any further questions.

Take care!

Hello!,

It is almost the end of my reveal week at Scrapbook Nerd.  This month I used a lot of different products for my projects,  but I was most excited about Fancy Pants's Golden Days collection.  I love how it matches perfect to the fall colors i so much love.

The background was created using the Retro Rounded Corners cut file from the Cut Shoppe, I simply backed the small spaces with papers from the collection, glued them to the page, and use the sewing machine to secure them to the layout.

A close up to the cut-outs in the layout

I kept the clusters around the picture very simple, as i just wanted to complement the picture.  For the title, I pulled a leatherette badge from Pink Paislee's Outfitters collection.   After a few ink splatters, and some journaling, the page was finished.  Here is the completed page:

This layout was put together in very little time,  here is a small video showing how it was build:

I hope you enjoyed the video, and find inspiration on how the page was built.  You can check all the material used at Scrapbook Nerd (the nerds are super nice!).  Let me know if you have any questions on how this came together.

Thanks for visiting today!

Hello there,

I am pulling double duty today!  I have a double reveal for my November projects in two of the design teams I belong, too.   So please just bare with me!

Today I bringing you a new layout I have created for Scrapbook Nerd using the beautiful Golden Days collection from Fancy Pants designs.   I have been waiting for this collection, since the day  I saw a sneak of the papers,   and now that I have it in front of me, I had to use it right away.

I started constructing this page by using the Cut Shoppe's new "Bountiful Blessings" cut file to create a stitched title on this soft plaid paper from the collection.  Once i finished stitching, I went ahead and added gold watercolor from the Prima Metallic palette.  

I usually take pictures in a series (that way i know one of the pictures will be good!), and this time i shot my sister and the littles (my niece and nephew) at the Humber River Trail during our Thanksgiving walk.   I picked the best 3 pictures of the bunch, and created a film strip with them.  I chose to just keep my sister's favorite in color, and in the center of  the strip.   I layered papers from the collection, and fussy cut the beautiful florals to accent the strip along with some die cuts, cork  and Puffy stickers from the collection.  You can see all the details in the close ups above.   I wrote the  journal lines in a tag from the collection, and hid them inside a small glassine bag behind the picture strip.   Here is the final layout:

Have i mentioned that i love this collection!, and the ladies at Scrapbook Nerd were so great at ordering it as soon as I mentioned that I would love to work with it (trust me, the Scrapbook Nerd ladies are awesome!).  

As always let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks for visiting!
